I am going to be brewing my first batch this Thursday and plan on brewing a a cherry wheat ale. There was no kit available at either local store so below is the recipe that was hand written for me. I am transcribing it here in hopes that if I misunderstood anything it can be nipped in the bud.
Start with 2 Gals of hot water.
Add 4 oz of Honey Malt & 4 oz of Flaked oats in a grain sock. Steep for approx 20 minutes as the water gets to a strong simmer.
Remove sock before the water comes to a boil.
After removing the sock add
1 can 4.4 pounds of Liquid Wheat Malt Extract
2 1 Pound bags of Dried Wheat Malt Extract
Stir constantly until liquid is back to a boil
add 1oz pellet hops
Boil for 30 minutes
During the last 5 minutes of boiling add an additional 1/2 oz of pellet hops.
When cooled add supplied Yeast Safale US-05 to Wort
Add Cherry concentrate to flavor. Up to 4oz for a 5 gallon batch.
Transfer liquid to Carboy via siphon and ferment for approximately 14 days
After Primary Fermentation transfer liquid to bottling bucket
Heat 1 cup of water and dissolve 2.5 oz of priming sugar into it.
Add syrup and stir.
Bottle as per instructions.
Hope I got that all right.
TIA
