with the raw wort, I could detect a nice aroma of hops. Beer tasted pretty darn good even with out carbonization. Color was spot on. Secondary tap in fermentor worked great, got clear beer into keg.
Wort was slow to ferment, added heat on the second day. On Tuesday I noticed a ring above the water line but no bubbling action in gas lock.?? Opened fermenter, big head of foam, so closed it up again. On Wednesday I observed it was bubbling and appeared to be mixing in the fermenter. Slow start that's for sure.
