Hey fellow brewers, I just tasted my first wheat beer and it came out better than I would have expected.
Ingredients:
------------
Amount Item Type % or IBU
5.70 lb Wheat Dry Extract 55/45 (8.0 SRM) Dry Extract 69.51 %
1.00 lb Lager Malt (2.0 SRM) Grain 12.20 %
1.00 lb Vienna Malt (3.5 SRM) Grain 12.20 %
0.50 lb Cara-Pils/Dextrine (2.0 SRM) Grain 6.10 %
1.25 oz Hallertauer [3.80 %] (60 min) Hops 17.0 IBU
0.75 oz Hallertauer [3.80 %] (3 min) Hops 1.3 IBU
1 Pkgs Safbrew WB-06 Yeast-Ale
-------------------------
Three weeks in the primary and 1 week in the bottle and it has nice carbonation, very smooth and drinkable. I did sort of a mini mash with the grains and got .010 higher grav than BeerSmith calculated and this was my first of 6 brews to hit my expected final grav. 6.40% ABV.
You guys/gal are all great and give good advice and suggestions!
Thanks
Bart
