Well it's looking like you're missing a pound of something. OG should have been 1.039 if the steeping of that wheat hit at least 75% efficiency =/ What temp was the wort when you took the gravity reading? Depending on the temperature of the sample the gravity could have read lower or higher as well..

60•F

strange... and you added 3lbs Extra Light, 1lb Amber, and steeped the wheat?

whatever happened i'm sorry if it was from misinformation on my behalf. just not as much alc. in this one I guess =/

My final recipe was 3# Golden Light, 1# Amber, and 1# CaraWheat steeped. I'm actually looking forward to a lower gravity brew this time. My last beer was a particularly heavy porter.

Alrighty then. I love the flavor it created by infusing an amber, a wheat, and a light. It was just enough of each to get a little bit of what I like out of each style, and the Willamette hops are a very light hop and I only used a little..

Just a heads up for anyone wanting to try this beer: even with all the problems I had, it aged extremely well. By the time I got to the last 6-pack this week, it was one of the best beers I have ever made. If I had the patience to brew a batch and let it alone for a year, I would.

I just started a batch of this! It's actually my first batch. It smells great out of the fermentor and i can't wait to bottle and taste it!

Unfortunately i couldn't follow your recipe entirely because my brew shop ran out of the AME but i'm sure it will be great in any case. Thanks for the recipe!
