I did look at the Web site and yes they do show those hops. But in my experience, and I have brewed this many many many times. The book was spot on with the bittering and overall flavor profile. You could do a side by side to find out which is closer to the real deal. I would be curious to...

The hops your using are not the correct variety. In the book brewing with wheat they outline the recipe. Pale, unmalted white wheat, malted red wheat. Hops perle, tettnang, saaz. With the pitching temp and fermentation. They use a house strain that I think is a blend of two or three yeast but...

1.010 to 1.014 you could bump the heat and rust the yeast. BUT I found a good pitch and a heavy dose of o2 at pitch helps. Bump the temp to 78 if you can. Or pitching us 05 should finish it for you.

You should be around 1.010 if not it's stuck. Make sure you put o2 on it when you pitcch

It is omegang with out a doubt. Allagash has more of a spice bite to it. Think I'm going to try some mixed yeast see if I can't replicate the allagash character.

By the way your wit looks great!

It's is an allagash clone and raw wheat is used per the brewer anything else is just your version of a wit. Cereal mashes are not hard. Grind up with coffee grinder. 121 for 15 min 152 for 20 min bring to low boil for 20 the infuse into main mash and get the main mash up to sac rest. Then...

What I wouldn't give for a clean pitch of Allagash yeast if anyone knows please share

Looking forward to hearing how it turns out.

I like the raw wheat. It gives the beer a great haze and a nice wheat bit almost a tang. But mashing Raw wheat is complicated. Find the Jamil show on pod cast. Has great information about using raw wheat. I grind mine with a coffee grinder but go slow you can burn up the grinder. And lots of...

Well side by side I can say it is not allagash. The yeast bay northeastern Abby was a bit sweeter and less funky. Allagash has a more pronounced yeast character. I will keep on trying different strains until I find a match.

I'm currently working on a batch of allagash yeast and north eastern Abby side by side. Will know in three weeks. Wanted to add that the allagash taste is not only their yeast but hops and spice additions. I would get a copy of brewing with wheat. The section on allagash is very helpful on hops...

I think this is a good recipe. I've been watching this thread for two years, I love this style. I listened to a pod cast of the Jamil Show talking about this style. They said that if you don't want to use raw wheat that you could flip the recipe with a 30/70 (two row/wheat) ratio to get the...
