I've read that wheats finish quick.
Now is that because of the wheat or the yeast?
(just did a extract wheat with Safale US-05 and wondering)



(hey whats with the gun add at the top? I though gunpowder and alcohol don't mix. I do dig both, no poltical slant, just the humor of it.
Footnote: the term 'proof' was coined from testing booze. It was mixed with gunpowder and if it sparked, it was 'proven', hence proofed/proof)
 
1. most wheats are a lower OG to fit the style
2. many wheat styles have esters and phenols so a slightly warm ferment (mid 70s) enhances those flavors

both of these result in quick primaries.
