Timmy your mash ph was too low. Measure your beer ph and see if it is above 4.1.
5.35 is good at mash temp, but it reads about 0.3 higher at room temp. So your mash ph was about 5.05.

TimmyR wrote:Tasted it again today. Still has the off character but it seems to be more in the aroma than the flavor. Beer pH is 4.4 at ~13C. The beer is very clear and it does not seem to be getting worse in any way. It is possibly actually getting a little better. I will likely dump the 5 gal in kegs after botteling some and the let 5 gal in a secondary carboy stand for a bit longer.
