Just finished up my second batch that will go into the keg (my 3rd "partial mash" I think ..isn't that where you have to steep the grains ..make the wort, then start a boil, add the extract for about 40 min or so, then add what ever else?) ..if that is not the right term for what I'm doing PLEASE correct me so I don't sound like an 1D10T in the future.
So ..for this batch ..
I followed the Brewers Best WitBier instructions ..when it came time to add the DME and the Spicepack ..I added an additional .25oz of Sweet Orange Peel (the spice pack already had .5oz of bitter orange). then I let that boil for about 5 minutes ..added the remaining "flavor" hopps and boiled for 10 Minutes.
At about the 3 minute mark to being done I started adding 3 lbs of Honey (it was Dark and Robust "Thrifty" Brand.
I then proceeded to cool it ..put it into my primary .then yeast it.
Any ideas how I can make my next batch better (if needed) ..the taste test
was: Nice Honey with a bit of orange sweetness, but not overpowering.
Thanks for any suggestions .........BY THE WAY ...........
I'm perty thick scinned ..stab away ..let the constructive critisim run free
