Sooo I am curious I want to make a beer dont know if UI want Lager or Ale but i want to add a honey flavour to it suggestions and ways to proceed please
usually the kit will have you add honey when you turn off the heat. don't add it then. wait until it has cooled to 160F, then add the honey. make sense?ok i dont make my own wort i buy kits though
interesting. i just googled festa and they look like nice kits. you could add honey by heating maybe a pound up to around 150F with maybe a half gallon water and then let it cool. then add that to your fermenter. the volume of the honey plus water would offset an equal amount of the water typically added to your kit.i use festa kits they dont require to be heated just kept at room temp
it does matter. orange blossom is probably a good place to start. or clover.ok that sounds like a idea umm what type of honey would I use or does it really matter?
Honey malt should really be mashed, but you can get some honey flavor from it by steeping.
