I would really like to try a extract/specialty grain Weihenstephan Hefe-Weissbier clone recipe. I have been searching with no luck. is a clone possible without AG?
I really appreciate your input.I don't see it being anything more then wheat extract (which normally is already cut with barley), German Noble hop for bittering and Bavarian Hefe yeast.
I saw this
Weihenstephaner Hefeweissbier 2.5 gallon boil / 60 minutes
6 lb. Muntons Wheat DME
1 oz. German Hallertau Hersbrucker @ 4.5%AA
Wyeast 3068 Weihenstephan Weizen
This looks too easy to duplicate such a great beer. Is the trick in the process?
I saw a few AG recipes that seemed very complicated with several rest stages to produce specific phenols.
I want to say it was the brewer from Weihenstephaner that said their grain bill was 2/3 wheat, 1/3 barley.
This is the exract clone recipe for Weihenstephan Hefe:
4.25 Pale Liquid Extract
3.75 Wheat Liquid Extract
1.00 oz. Hallertau @ 60 min
White Labs WLP300
When making an all extract brew, what's the process?
Thanks.
OK, got the basic process, thanks.
Any tips?
Is it better to wait and dissolve at 150 like a mash, or does simply adding extract at "remove the pot from the heat" work well?
Using DME for this extract Weihenstephan Hefe-Weissbier clone, and just looking for tips from the experienced.
Thanks.
BTW PinkFloyd4Ever, ho'd your Hefe turn out? https://www.homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=525139
