This weekend I'm going to be brewing this recipe I found in this thread: http://homebrewtalk.com/showthread.php?t=4685
I was planning on adding a pound of specialty grains... wheat, and steep that for 30mins. Also, I've read some about late extract additions and was wondering what the benefit of this can be. Any suggestions?
Code:
6.6 pounds of Coopers Wheat Malt Extract
1 pound of clear Belgian candi sugar
.5 ounces of bitter orange peel (2 min)
.5 ounces of tettnanger hops (10 min)
2 ounces of styrian golding hops (30min)
.75 ounces of coriander seed (2 min)
1 pkg of white labs wit yeast
0.75 cups of corn sugar (priming)
Instruction
1) bring three gallons of water to boil for 5 minutes. This will precipitate out any chlorine in the water. Remove from heat.
2) Mix in Coopers Light malt extract, reapply heat, bring to a gentle boil.
3) Add Styrian Golding hops and boil for 30 minutes
4) With 10 minutes remaining in the boil, add tettnanger hops and candy sugar. With 2 min remaining in the boil add orange peel and coriander seed (crushed).
5) After boil, aggressively cool to room temperature and add yeast.
6) Ferment at 68-75 F
