This is still in primary so no tasting notes
14 lbs. Canadian Pils
1.5 lbs wheat
.5 lbs Aromatic
2 lbs Clover honey
1.2 oz Hallertauer 90 min.
.75 Haller - 20 min
1/2 cinnamon stick - 10
.4 oz crushed coriander - 10
1/2 orange peel - 0
2 lbs honey - 0
Mashed at 135 for 15, 140 for 15, 148 for 30 and 158 for 30. Great yield on this one. Honey was added after I turned the heat off to retain all the honey aromatics.
No problem with the honey being added with the heat off. It dissolved nicely and thoroughly. Cooled and popped into a 6 gallon carboy, added the yeast starter and waited 3 hours. Divided into 2 carboys and good thing. The Ardennes yeast is a vigorous fermenter and even in a half carboy almost hit the top. Yes I know this is the 'wrong' yeast for this beer. I like it though and think it will produce a nice spicy clone of this delicious beer.
