The one on my site is the latest incarnation... one that is still fermenting, so the jury is out. I'll try to report later in the week when I sample some.

So what would I change? I'd change to the recipe on my site, as I just did. As far as yours goes, that should be good too. No reason why it shouldn't work.

well ... i went ahead and brewed the recipe as it is on here including the marmolade, but with just 12oz. of plain honey as thats all i could find around town .. i havent yet started the zest soaking in the vodka ... im hearing different thoughts on that .. so would you say your way will give me a nice citrus flavor without over powering the beer? .. thanks for the recipe .. the wlp300 is just attacking that wort right now .. smells really banana-ish and sulfur-ish coming out of the ailock

What other thoughts? I feel it's the best way to extract the oils from the zest. Don't automatically dump it all in - add it to taste when you're bottling/kegging.

I am getting those right now too... Especially the sulfur a few days ago. On the bright side, the sulfur is on the outside now!

I would really like to brew this, but I only have the ability to do just over a 5 gallon boil. Could you see about 1.5lbs of the pils grain being replaced with 1lb of Breiss Pils DME?

If that's how the calculations work out, sure.

Interesting. I think i may have let the orange peel set in the vodka too long, it has an orange pith taste to it... .

Possibly because i only put the Vodka in, not the peels too...

Okay, so I bought my ingredients and here's what I'm going to use for partial mash (I have a mash tun but my brew kettle can only handle about a 6 gallon boil):

4 lbs 2-row
4 lbs wheat malt

Mash in 2.5 gallons (165 degree strike water to get a 153 degree mash) for 45 minutes

Sparge 3-3.5 gallons of 170 degree water (just eyeballing how much I can fit in the kettle)

Bring to boil, add 1 lb Breiss wheat DME (65% base malt, 35% wheat malt)

Boil .5 oz Hallertau for 60 minutes
Heaping Tbs of Orange marinade (15 minutes)
8 oz Orange blossom honey (5 min)
8 oz apricot flavored honey (5 minutes)

The store only had 1 8oz jar of Orange blossom in stock, but this should work

Do the Orange peel in vodka thing

I'll report back how it works out
