Morning HBT,
I've decided (after cashing out my keg Tuesday) that it's time to get something bubbling in the basement ASAP. Kind of broke at the moment, but I have a lot of leftovers from other beers in my man cave.
Here's what I have laying around:
5# red wheat
3 or 4# light munich
1# Vieanna
2# flaked white wheat
1# chocolate malt
1/2# cara 40
1/2# cara 60
3# 2-row
2# flaked corn
1# acidulated malt
8oz Amarillo
8oz Citra
1# hallertau (home grown)
1# cascade (home grown)
1# columbus (home grown)
2 packets muntons ale
coriander
I also picked up 5 blood oranges at the store last night.
I'm thinking doing something like a wheat / IPA version of the blood orange hefe - don't know if you guys have tried the recent splurge of wheat IPA beers on the market but I like the flavor, definitely something different.
Here are my thoughts:
*******
5# red wheat
2# flaked white wheat
3# 2-row
1# light munich
Mash 60min @ 151d F
Create the blood orange "tea" using the sparge water, set fruit aside once sparge complete
60min boil:
[60] 1oz Amarillo
[10] 1oz Amarillo
[7] 1oz Hallertau
[5] 1oz Amarillo
[3] 1oz Hallertau
Add blood orange fruit to the brew bucket for fermentation, pitch the muntons
Dry hop with 1oz Amarillo
6% ABV
5 SRM
51 IBU
*******
Sounds kind of tasty to me.. Tear it apart though if you want to, or tell me what you would do with that list of ingredients.
Cheers![Mug :mug: :mug:](https://cdn.homebrewtalk.com/smilies/sdrinking-100-154.gif)
