Chocolate Wheat Beer
Extract:
-1 can Muntons Wheat Extract (40 pint kit)
Grains:
-1.0 lb crushed Chocolate Malt (Briess)
-0.5 lb crushed Biscuit Malt (Castle)
-0.5 lb crushed Carapils (Briess) - for head retention (can also use Torrified Wheat for head retention and body)
-0.5 lb crushed Caramel 60L (Briess)
Hops:
-1 oz Hallertau Hop Pellets
Adjuncts:
-2-4 oz of Cocoa Nibs (Ghana) - add in the secondary to avoid adding bitterness with the chocolate flavour
Additives:
-1 oz Irish Moss (add in last 15 min of boil)
-1 lb lactose
Yeast:
-1 vile White Labs Hefeweizen Ale Yeast WLP300
When my grain bill arrives I will get this batch brewing and let everyone know how it turns out. Keep in mind this is not only my first experimental brew but also my first partial grain brew since all I have experience in so far is all extract.
