I'm putting together my first non-kit brew and want to get off to a good start. I'm looking for some suggestions from seasoned brewers before I put grain to water. This would be a 5 gallon batch.
Do you see something I'm missing? Any other suggestions?
I'm attempting to play with the Hefweizen style and would like to get around 7% ABV
My calculations:
OG: 1.075
FG: 1.019
IBU: 8.82
Grain Bill
* 8 lb. German Wheat Malt Light
* 6 lb. German Pilsner Malt
* 1 lb. Rice Hulls
* 8 oz. Wheat Flakes
* 2 oz. Aromatic Barley Malt
* 2 oz. Acid Malt
Steep in 3 gallons at 150 for 90 minutes.
Bring to boil (60 minute)
Hops
* 1 oz. Hersbrucker Pellet Hops @ 60 minutes left
* ¼ oz. Spalt Pellet Hops @ 15 minutes
* ¼ oz. Perle Whole Leaf @ 15 minutes
Yeast
* Hefeweizen Ale Yeast WLP300
Thanks for the input in advance!
