Ive been brewing for a couple months now and have moved onto all-grain. Two weeks ago I tried my hands at a Belgian wit, recipe posted at the bottom, and everything went fairly well besides dealing with my first stuck sparge and low OG. Anyways the color looked good and the wort tasted pretty fantastic. After two weeks in the primary, fermenting in the low 60's, my white beer has turned to a caramel color.
My question to all you experts is why? My first thought is some sort of infection but there is no residue, or anything, on top of the beer and I would like to believe I do a decent job sanitizing. Sorry I don't have any pictures but any advise/suggestions would be appreciated.
Ingredients:
4.5lbs Pale Malt 2-Row
4.5lbs Flaked Wheat
1lb Flaked Oats
1oz East Kent Goldings
1oz Bitter Orange
.5oz Sweet Orange
1oz Corriander
WLP400 Yeast
Mashed at 152 for 60 Min
