PROBLEMS
1) 1318 pack arrived two days before I expected, I was still on my NE beer expedition. So it sat outside my door in a cardboard box in east LA for ~48HRs.
2) Whilst stirring during cool down, a lot of foam started forming. Meaning, I've been doing this for years and never got foam. So any foam is a 100% increase.
3) Wort smelled weird during cool down, like baked beans.
4) Resulting beer was not hazy and had an oily texture.
5) Resulting beer tasted bad and had little to no hop flavor.
6) I'm less happy than I was before making this batch.

Ideas?

I wonder if I have bad malt. I've made 2 saisons and one stout since. The stout involved oats but otherwise none of my stored ingredients for this beer were used in those beers (is that non-sense?).
Was this all due to unrefrigerated yeast?

 

I did not, but fermentation took off as per usual. My poor man's temp control (mini-carboy in a water bath with frozen water bottles in a home depot bucket) kept me ~72°F for two weeks.

Touch astringent. Meaning, bland beer until back of palate where it made me pucker.

I've only dry hopped once, the result didn't seem significant. I did only use 0.25oz per gallon. That much in a hop sock is difficult to get out of my mini-carboy's neck.

I've used this same amount before with the same process (minus the f'd up yeast) and came out much closer to style. That said, 3oz/gallon sounds tasty, so my argument with you goes no further.

 

I haven't ventured into the mash pH realm.

Fly sparged at 168°F. This involves me pouring the grain into a steel colander and following that with sparge water.

I dunno if taking a photo of the whirlpool foam would help, but it grew as a stirred and was enough to be jarring. I stirred with a glass thermometer that had been sitting in a StarSan bath. The hop bags in the wort whilst whirlpooling were in the same StarSan bath until about the time of the addition. They were also new out of the packaging. No OxiClean on them, maybe that was the bad move? Even so, they're going into a boiling environment.

 

I do not. I use Brita filtered water! Chastise as you see fit, I'm ready. That said, I'll look into it.

I've made good NE IPAs before which is why initial thought was bad ingredients. And the stout I've made since had no weird foam issue. Taste test is pending.
