I've currently got an American-style lager fermenting away and I'm starting to plan my next brew - a honey wheat beer. Here's the recipe I have so far (more or less):
3kg Wheat LME
1kg Light DME
11.5g Safbrew WB-06 Yeast
57g Perle hops (all 57g at 0 minutes)
22g Saaz hops (14g at 40 minutes, 8g at 58 minutes)
500g Honey
I've done this brew before without the honey and it came out great. The biggest question I have now is how much honey to add and when to add it. I don't want my final product to be overly sweet, I'd like it to just have subtle honey tones. From everything I've read, my best bet is to add the honey after the boil while the wort is still hot. Any advice or suggestions would be much appreciated!
