i just brewed something very similar to this. Virtually the same grain bill, wlp400, whole leaf hallertau's at 11.6 IBU's, 1/2 oz bitter orange for an 11 gallon batch, 1.1 oz crushed coriander, and mashed at 155 to get me some body. Came in at 1.050 and expect it to finish out at 1.011 or 1.012. I made something like this last year and loved it.

I brewed a 10 gallon batch of this and it is absolutely amazing. Thanks for the recipe!

I Think I'm going to do a 10 Gal of this this weekend. Double the values of everything?

That's what I did and it turned out awesome. I used the Wyeast Belgian wit on a 2liter starter and just split that between the two carboys.

Im still fairly new to AG..how much water should be used in the mash?

**HBrew71** · 04-22-2012, 05:23 PM

1.25 quarts of water for every lb of grain is a good amount. For 10lbs of grain that would be 12.5 qts of water.

Brewed this yesterday. Used hallertau, wlp400, and skipped the orange extract. Happily bubbling away in the carboy now. OG was 1.051. Thanks for the recipe.

Yea I skipped the orange extract as well with great results.

Just kegged after 2 weeks in primary. FG was 1.010. Smell and color were dead on, but the taste was a bit bitter. I'm really hoping that dies off after a couple weeks in the keg, otherwise I wonder if subbing sweet orange peel would "fix" that. Maybe the orange extract, which I omitted, is important?
