Thirty pixels is a very wide line, and I can imagine that when drawn without antialiasing, it's going to look very jagged; that's probably what you're seeing. You might want to try something like

graph.setRenderingHint(
    RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING,
    RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_ON);

On the other hand, maybe you're already getting antialiasing, and you want to turn it off; then

graph.setRenderingHint(
    RenderingHints.KEY_ANTIALIASING,
    RenderingHints.VALUE_ANTIALIAS_OFF);

One of these is guaranteed to change the appearance of your image; hopefully it will be more to your liking.
