I have it set in my head to do an imperial peach wheat. Yes yes i know imperial and wheat do not generally go together but hey i love to experiment. I did a extract brew based on AlphaPyro's Peach wheat recipe.
6 lbs northern brewer wheat LME
2 lbs grocery store brand honey added with LME
1.5 oz czech saaz at 45 mins
.5 us goldings at 15 mins
racked on 3 lbs peach puree after 10 days in primary
racked again after 2 weeks in secondary
sat in tertiary for 10 days with .5 oz of organic orange peel steeped in a tea ball for 5 days
o.g. 1.067
f.g. 1.009
The issue is that it ended up a little bitter(probably cause of the use of the saaz) and lacking body,Very watery.
I really wanted more mouthfeel, something alittle thicker. I'm looking for maybe some kind of steeping grain or/and completely different hops/hop schedule.
Im really just hoping to rely on the experience of brewers of HBT to help me out on this. Any help will be much appreciated.
