    3068 low temp ferment finishing high

    I've done a number of extract hefe and dunkelweizen brews with Wyeast 3068 over the last few months, since discovering that fermenting my brews at 17C (62.6F) gave me the exact flavour profile I was chasing (similar to a Weihenstephan hefe/dunkel). The beers have come out great, particularly...

    Hey all, i'm planning to brew my first ever extract/partial today after a few very successful brews with kits. The recipe calls for various additions of Amarillo during the boil...i have two packs of Amarillo hop pellets that I bought from different places at different times. I'm a little...
