I made the extract version of this with minimal variation. The one variation I made was doing 3/4 lb lactose. I figured this would sweeten it up a bit, but it is outrageously sweet. I'm 2 weeks into bottle condition. Do y'all think another couple weeks in the bottle will help the other...

I know this thread is a couple years old but I had a question... I have a very similar recipe: 6# wheat LME 1# crystal 10 1 oz hallertau wb-06 yeast I've never done a wheat beer but from what I understand the wb-06 will create a banana-ish flavor... Have you tried to do fruit with this type of...

it came out pretty dry so I actually ended up sweetening just a little (posted above). Not sure how long it will take to carb but I'll keep you posted.

Update, I just bottled this cider today. I let it ferment down a little too far probably at .995. That leaves this at slightly above 9% abv. :tank: I back sweetened just a little with a couple cups of grape juice and 2/3 cup corn sugar. I have my eyes on my soda bottle so I don't...
