I have found this site helpful http://www.whitelabs.com/beer/homebrew_strains.html and also a brochure that I got from my local shop that described several specialty yeasts

I just came across a kit that was purchased from my local shop, I forgot it was in there. It is an American Wheat with a can of extract, A zip lock style plastic pouch with hops in it and another with steeping grains. Also a pouch of dry yeast. Also two thermo sealed pouches of DME. Should...

I drank six of them once........ ..........................and completely forgot I was cooking at all

Another 10 here... 1857

How much sugar did you carb it with? I used 3/4lb and it was carbed much like champagne, I wished it was a little less carbed....My second batch came out better, as I used less. The other batch I did using the Wyeast 3068 had a natural fizz to it probably could have just let that one go with...

I used the Wyeast 3068 it is certainly a bit sweeter. I actually liked the original recipie that Edwort gave us, but my wife likes the sweeter version using the wyeast. That said when I pour a glass for my wife I swirl the bottle and pour it all in like you would for a Heffe. When I have a...

Just west of Albany here.... ....having fun and drinkin' beer

Started another 5 the night before last 1356 gal

You could jazz it up with a specialty yeast. Many of which add nice flavors.

Sorry mis understood your question.... ....Is there really a benefit to the extra work involved as opposed to purchasing puree. When I researched for a raspberry wheat, I kept getting directed back to the puree. What about the cost fresh fruit isn't cheap, and it seems there is a larger...

I may be way off base here due to my lack of experience in making beer, however I do have some experience in drinking..... It seems to me that a Hefe has a unique flavor all its own, that a hefe should be left a hefe. If you want to make strawberry beer just go with a basic Strawberry...

What would you use for a more fruity and less dry taste? I used the montrachet as in your original recipe. I liked it and my wife would like it less dry. I read in another thread that the 3068 was used and produced an almost tropical fruit flavor...sounded nice

Thanks for the reply. The package says to make a starter with DME....Is that the route I should take?

I am starting another batch of Apfelwein. I decided to try the Wyeast 3068. I am however a little confused I have not tried a yeast of this nature before. How do I use it? Thanks

What happened on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday?

Ok COOL.....bottled it shall be

I am below 1.000 according to my hydrometer at about 67* The sample I drew seems slightly carbed though. Should it be 100% flat?

QUESTION PLEASE: I am 5 weeks in and it is not clear...I want to bottle and plan to do so right now. I also plan on 3/4 cup corn sugar to carb....should I be good to go?

It's all in the bottles..... Wow what a great flavor! I came up a bottle short, I couldn't stop drinking it while I was bottling it. Even flat it tasted good. I'll be using WLP300 again. I would use it on the next batch, but I want to try the 320 or the 380.
