Hello community:
I am planing to produce a Witbier (BJCP 24A). In this style, BJCP states that 50% of the grist should be unmalted wheat.
My question is: ¿ will the unmalted wheat bring more or less the same amount of sugars of a malted wheat grain to the original gravity after the mash? According to Brewer´s Friend calculators, the unmalted wheat will in fact add 1036 gravity points, so I do not see a real difference.
Your advice will be greatly appreciated.
Best regards
Rogelio
