I am about 2 do my second attempt at a berliner. My last was a few years ago and I am doing something similar this time. Just wanted to see if anyone could add some suggestions to my process.
67% - 2 Row
33% - White Wheat
mash at 152 with a 2 gallon decoction to mash out, no sparge. Bring to a boil, chill to about 100F and pitch lacto. Hold about 100 for a few days then pitch active starter of 1056. I am also thinking about throwing in some brett with the 1056.
I have WY5335 and WLP677, the plan was to pitch both of these without a starter. I know a lot of people have trouble with 677 but it worked pretty well for me last time, I did do a starter of apple juice and dme though. Would pitching just the 5335 be better? With starter?
