Ok, so we're running another attempt at a wheat beer. Our first attempt was our second brew and it was, blah, to say the least. Drinkable, but just not right.
Here is the recipe as of right now. I'm planning on getting ingredients tomorrow afternoon, but we wont be brewing until this Saturday. Any ideas, suggestions...?
Also, is it suggested to rack to secondary for a wheat, or will too much yeast be lost?
Thanks!
5 gal yield
1 hour boil
4 lbs Dry Wheat extract
.75 lbs Malted Wheat
.5 lbs German Wheat Malt, Light
.25 lbs Pilsner Malt
1 lb Honey
.5 oz Saaz (60 mins)
WLP300
Estimated OG: 1.049
Estimated FG: 1.012
Color: 7.2 SRM
ABV: 4.85%
Jokingly, we're discussing adding blueberries to it if it turns out like the first. Thanks guys!
