well i went down to my local brew store and told the guy what i was looking to make and he helped me make a recipie... kinda did a bluemoon/raspberry mix
6lbs wheat dry malt exttract
.75lbs flaked oats
.5lbs pale pale malt
.50 flaked wheat
pitched these grains between two bags for
25mins then took out right before start of boil and squeezed out as much liquid from bag's as possible
oh and im getting 1 bubble about every 3 secs in the air vent
1.25 oz hallertau-- at begging of boil
.75 oz hallertau---- add with 20 mins left to boil
.5oz dried orange peel---- added with 20mins left to boil
.25 corriander seed--- added with 7 mins left to boil
3pounds raspbeer purree add half to primary (before i pitched the yeast and added 1.5lbs of puree
WLP320 AMERICAN Hefeweizen ale for yeast
cool with ice bath ... pitched the yeast when the temp was around 75
took og it was about 1.0070 alot higher then and darker then i was expecting
----------------------------------------------------------------------
so one thing i was wondering is that when i add the other 1.5 lbs of raspbeer puree when i move to secondary do i need to boil the puree to make sure that it is sterile?
also the beer should get lighter right after the yeast finish fermenting the beer and when i add it to the secondary and the beer has time to clear it up ?
right now the beer temp is between 66-68 by what the Fermometer adhesive thermometers said...now that is a good temp right?
