Hello! This is my first post and first recipe, let me know what you think or if it just won't work at all. It sould be an American wheat that somewhat resembles an hefeweisen or witbier?
1gal batch size, maybe 60% eff.
(50%) 1.2bs Briess 2-row Brewers malt
(31%) 0.5lbs Briess white wheat
(10%)0.2lbs flaked wheat
(6%) 0.1lbs flaked oaks
(2%) 0.05lbs rice hulls
.05oz Motueka 30min
.125oz Motueka 15min
.125oz Motueka flameout
Estimates:
OG 1.051
FG 1.012
Abv 5.1%
IBU 17
Srm 4.2
BIAB, Mash flaked wheat and oats along with 20% of the 2-row @ 125deg for 15 min then add remaining grains and raise to 150deg for 60 min.
Batch sparge to get up to preboil volume (around 2.1gal)
Boil 60 min with hop schedule above.
Cool to 70deg and pitch 2.5g Safbrew T-58 dry yeast.
Ferment 10days at 65deg, raise to 70deg for the last 4.
Bottle condition for 2 weeks with 1.1oz/gal honey (going for 2.5volumes).
My goal is a light colored beer that isn't too wheaty but still a little crisp.I don't want it really hoppy so I wanted to use a single hop and motueka looked interesting and should give it a nice tropical hint and good aroma and let the spice and flavor from the T-58 yeast come out. I was considering adding a very small amount of coriander and orange peel but I might just want to see what the malt, hop, yeast flavor is like by itself.
What do you think?? Hopefully this turns out good and not too bland or just bad!
