A couple nights ago I bottled 9 gallons of EdWort's Bavarian Hefeweizen and was looking at all that creamy yeast on the bottom of the carboys and thought I'd try an experiment. Using a 1 gallon carboy, I poured some of the left over yeast slurry into it (Wyeast 3068 Weihenstephan) and filled about 3/4 the way with Mott's apple juice. I then took about 2 cups of apple juice, put it into a pan to heat until approximately 4 oz. of honey was dissolved. I then cooled and added this to the carboy. Slapped on an airlock and put it in the cabinent. 8 hours later fermentation was rocking with the airlock bubbling about once a second.
After fermentation is complete, I'm planning on priming with wheat DME and bottling. Any chance this is going to turn out good?
