So after brewing several batches of beer I like, SWMBO wants me to brew something she would like and I'm thinking a strawberry wheat. I've been been doing some reading and thought I'd work off a local homebrew shop's recipe, what do you think? Comments, suggestions?
7.5 lbs. wheat malt extract (upped this from 6 lbs)
1/2 lb. wheat malt grain
1/2 lb. six-row pale malt
1/4 lb. cara-pils malt
1 oz. Hallertauer hops (bittering 60 minutes of boil))
1 pkg. Safbrew T-58
5 lbs Strawberries (Secondary)
Than rack onto 5 lbs of strawberries. Should I buy frozen and simply put them in the carboy? Or buy fresh and put them in heated water at 180F to pasteurize them? If I go frozen, I won't need any sort of sanitization because they've already been pasteurized?
