Hey all...
I am trying to make an all grain hefeweizen recipe but I want to make sure I am going at it correctly.
I DO NOT like the Widmer Hefeweizen or Pearl Street El Hefe. To me they are not hefeweizens.
The ones I want my beer to tast like are Flying Dogs In Heat Wheat or RAM Brewing's Hefeweizen. How do I better my odds of getting my hefeweizen to be more like these and less like Widmer's.
Do I just make sure I am fermenting low?
I am planning on using Bee Cave's Hefe recipe as follows:
Bavarian Hefeweizen 5.5 Gallon
7# German Wheat
4# German Pils
.5# Rice Hulls (if needed to prevent stuck mash)
Mash for 90 minutes at 153 degrees.
.75 Hallertau @ 45
.25 Hallertau @ 15
Wyeast Weihenstephan 3068 with starter.
Ferment 10 days at 68 degrees then crash cool & keg.
