Hey y’all, I made my first Dunkel and have tried a few of them and it didn’t come out like I thought it should. Every one that I have had was more of a chocolate brown ale flavor with that Hefeweizen taste in the background. This one had barely any chocolate flavor and was a hint of fruity.
What are some idea I could do different with this recipe to make it more of that chocolate flavor? I know I could increase the chocolate but I’m always hesitant to raise the chocolate malt. I literally made this recipe from scratch so I’m open for any input you want to give.
2.5 gallon batch
BIAB
OG: 1.053 FG: didn’t write down but it was around 1.012
2.6lb White Wheat
1.6lb 2 Row
0.2lb Caraaroma
0.13lb Crystal 60
0.1lb Chocolate 350*
0.015oz Magnum 60min
0.3oz Tettnang 60min
Used half a packet of WLP300
Ca: 85 Mg: 17 Na: 25 Cl: 110 SO4: 112
