I will also be gathering willamette and Magnum hops that could maybe work as a substitute for the hops I have placed in this recipe. Let me know If you have any Ideas on how to critique this recipe.

My imperial wheat after fermenting for 9 days in primary, racked on top cascade hops cloves and coriander. Smells great!

This is the second batch of the two. I racked from my brew pot on the yeast and trub from the first batch and fermentation took off immediate! I recommend this method for anyone who is looking at getting the most out of their yeast.
