Big Brew Day

We have a local brewery that is providing us a work that's 100% pale ale malt with a gravity around 1.050. If I'm looking to use this for a hazy how would you add the additions of the high protein malts?

You may want to begin by adding some wheat malt extract. And, don't forget that the haze comes mostly from the yeast selection and dry hopping during fermentation with a biotransformation friendly yeast. Good luck, and please let us know how it goes.

i'm not sure i follow the question? are you getting a bucket full of un hopped, 1.050 wort?

 

[jccbulldog]

Yes, 5 gallons

 

[bracconiere]

is it hopped? if so, they sell wheat malt extract if you want a high protein beer.

 

[bracconiere]

if it's not hopped already, then start heating the wort up in a big pot, when it hits ~150f steep some of what ever malt you want in a steeping bag, then finish bring it to a boil, and boil your hops....

(and i'd be in a big hurry, that baby will start to spontaneously ferment. QUICK!)

Based on that, I think I may know where you live. Lol.

This is so sad.
Years gone by the largest lhbs in New England and only 15 minutes away ("StrangeBrew") had some epic BBDs on premises, complete with multiple brew rigs a'brewin and pallet bonfires and eventually lots of baked and buzzed brewers. Those were some hella fun times. Amazingly no blood was shed nor skin lost in spite of the rather high BALs

Cheers!
