Schwarz Weizen Recipe Needed

[ChoochNW]

Ok so a macro brewery here in Portland puts out an amazing Schwarz Weizen every now and then, looking to see if anyone has a recipe for this style of beer (my searches seem to be coming up empty).

Thanks in advance!

Yeah all about beer published a recipe a year or two ago. I think I still have it although I never made it. I'll check my laptop tomorrow and try to post it up.

 

[ChoochNW]

Thanks!

try searching for dunkle weizen (and then add a little carafa)

5 gallon recipe:

Grist:
5 lb pilsner malt
2 lb munich malt
2lb flaked wheat
1lb carafa III

Single infusion mash at 161.4F to 150F mash for 60 minutes, batch sparge

60 minute boil

Boil additions:

1.25oz Pearle (8%) at 60
0.50oz Saaz (4%) at 10

Ferment with kolsch yeast, european ale yeast, or neutral American strain

OG: 1.054
FG: 1.016
SRM: 37.8
IBUs 37.7
ABV: 4.98

Not quite a dunkelweizen recipe with carafa but fairly close.

Did anyone ever give this recipe a bash?


I enjoyed a nice kapuziner schwarz-weizen with my dad last night and would like to clone / make something of similar style

I have brewed 3 10 gallon batches of the below recipe. I split the fist 10 gallons in half and pitched two different yeasts (3638, 3333). The 3638 was a bit to fruity for my pallet. It's a great summer session beer for people who crave a darker beer in the hot summer months.

Recipe:

Eff: 75%

5.62 lbs Wheat Malt
1.75 lbs Pilsner 2 row
1 lb Munich Malt
.65 lbs Carafa 2
.5 lbs Wheat Flaked

1oz Tettnang @ 60. Min

Sweet! Thanks.

I haven't had many commercial examples of this, are they are that you'd say are comparable?

 

[ChoochNW]

None that I have found.

 

[atimmerman88]

I've purchased all the ingredients to brew this, namely the carafa II. had to order that offline.

Order 3333 and plan to use that to make Slim's Lemon Lime Hefe later this spring as well.

Here's the recipe I'll be using based on yours ChoochNW:

Brewing this tomorrow! Finally.

3333 is spinnin away

 

[atimmerman88]

Does any one care to shed some light on a potential carbonation level to target?

Mr.Malty is showing somewhere are 4 volumes for dunkles & hefes

I've never bottle carbed anything up that high, I presume bottles can take it.

 

[atimmerman88]

I'm very pleased with the recipe! Slight roastyness but still light and refreshing

Thanks!

 

[ChoochNW]

Glad to hear it turned out well. I have 15 gallons of it fermenting as we speak. One of my favorite spring/summer session beers.

 

[atimmerman88]

Just made 10 more gallons of this....

2.5 on 3726
