Hi,
I'm planning to brew a basic American Wheat from Northern Brewer tomorrow. My girlfriend wants to add orange...so we are adding orange. But, I'd like to do it correctly. I've read some recipes that call for orange peel or orange zest added to the boil. And, some that call for orange zest added to the secondary. Has anyone modified a wheat recipe with orange? Can someone suggest a good approach i.e. how much orange peel or zest and how long? (recipe below)
Thanks,
