Northern brewer hefeweizen kit

[triskelion]

I've heard very good things about the northern brewer hefeweizen kit and would like to give it a go. however I cannot get hold of it locally so I was just going to try and match the instructions with what ingredients I can get my hands on.

hows this sound:
3Kg coopers wheat liquid extract
500g muntons wheat dry extract
wyeast 3068
1oz tettnang, 1 hour boil.
coopers priming sugar

would anyone make any changes to this? I was hoping for something like franziskaner, which the kit supposedly replicates. I haven't got on to all grain yet, this is just a slight step up from the coopers wheat kit that I did last.

I started with the kit then started buying ingredients in bulk and from my experience the yeast just makes the beer. If I add extra wheat LME or DME it is pretty similar in taste. The yeast is where most of the flavor comes from and you won't be disappointed.
