i just made "whos in the garden cru" from the joy of homebrewing. i noticed that the hops and other flavors just aren't really coming through. ive had this before. my beers are fairly bitter, but getting hop aromas and flavors seem to be hit or miss. im an extract brewer and occasionally use some grains. sometimes i use too much water in my boil and only can add a gallon or two of cold water to the fermenter. i do not use a wort chiller, so sometimes the wort has to sit quite a while at a hot or warm temp before i can pitch the yeast, sometimes overnight. could this be why my flavors/aromas arent there? are wort chillers a necessary part of retaining the essential flavors to the beer? any help would be appreciated. thanks
