So I just recently brewed up an extract Hef, with 6.6 lb Wheat LME. I added all of the extract at the beginning, and the wort came out super dark - similar to the color of my American Pale Ale. I know that the volume makes the beer look darker, but even considering that, it seems excessively so.
Will this lighten at all as it ferments out? Or will I be stuck with a dark Hef? I'm sure it'll taste fine, maybe even great, but I was hoping for that classic golden Hef color.
Also, anything I can do to lighten it up?
Thanks!
