[B]I'm making my first wheat beer and I have a few questions. Any bits of wisdom from my fine brothers and sisters at HBT would be much appreciated.[/B]
1. I have seen several recipes calling for irish moss. Is this an essential step for wheat beer recipe?
2. I would like to add some type of berry to it. Some recipes call for berries in the primary, some in the secondary.... some recipes use extract not actual berries... frozen or not frozen.... blue, black, rasp, cherries? Not sure which way to go here.
I will be using briess LME from midwest, I have 6.6 lbs of gold, amber and wheat (65% whe , 35% bar) in house, but don't have the hops or yeast yet. Any recommendation there would be welcome.
Yes I did search HBT.
Thanks
