1 Gallon recipe review.... input or ideas

[frankjones]

Will this give me a decent, medium body wheat ale?

Was thinking of a one gallon biab wheat ale.

1 pound 2 row
1 pound wheat

Mash 150 degrees for 45 minutes

Boil 30 minutes

US 05 for yeast

1/2 ounces cascade 30 minutes

How much water?

I'm not absolutely sure, but .5 oz on hops seems high, and you won't have much bittering with a 30 min boil. Intersted in hearing thoughts from more experienced Brewers on that.

Pending your water volume/system losses and assuming you have them relatively dialed in so you're using the appropriate volumes of water...this should be good to go.

I've seen info that says that 90% of the bittering happens in the first 30 minutes. YMMV
