Notes: 1. Bring 2.5 Gallons of water to temp. 155-160F.
2. Add 1lb of your Pilsen DME
3. Steep your speciality grains for 20 minutes -- Oats included.
4. "Sparge" the bag using .25 gallons of 160F water.
5. Bring the wort to a boil.
6. Once boil has been acheived, add 1/2 oz El Dorado Hops to boil for 60 minutes.
7. Add your DME and Lactose at 50 minutes.
8. Turn of heat at 60 minutes
9. Add your mandarin peel to steep in the wort for 20 minutes after flameout.
10. Cool your wort to 160F-170F and add your Cascade/Amarillo hops for 20 minutes.
11. Ferment for at least 14 days in primary, at day 11, add your Galaxy, Cascade, and Amarillo hops.
My goal is to make a citrousy, creamy, smooth, juicy/smooth beer with good head retention and mouthfeel. I might switch around the hops based on what I'm shooting for.
11/4/22: Beer is a tad darker than I hoped. Sparging made a huge difference: I retained my calculated OG of 1.072 even at 5.5 gallons. Chilling with refrigerated water really did the trick to bring the temperature down fast.
11/5/2022: Beer blew out of fermentor after 24 hours. Smells and tastes amazing. Very juicy smelling. Can't wait to dry hop.
11/15/22: Added my dry hop. Galaxy hops were a tad too bitter on the nose for my preference. Finished at 1.020! Very smooth flavor and well balanced sweetness and hop! Slighty tropical/fruity smell, but not nearly as strong as I'd expect, hopefully carbonation will help with this. Color checks out, not nearly as hazy as I hoped, but hopefully this means it won't get that weird "brown" oxidation color.
11/18/2022: Bottling was a disaster. The siphon kept getting clogged which led to a bunch of re-siphoning and oxygen bubbles. I feel oxidation will almost be imminent with this beer. Overall, the flavor and aroma is pretty much where I want it. I would have liked a little more sweet orange, so I will add more orange to the brew next time. The beer is incredibly juicy and hazy, just how I want it. |

Notes: After about one week of primary fermentation with neutral sacc yeast, rack to minimize headspace and add starter of dregs (I added 5 different lambic or lambic-style beer dregs, plus a vial of Brett Lambicus). Can add a few oak cubes of you like (just boil them first so they’re not too strongly flavored). Put in a temp-stable closet and forget about for a year or so... |

Notes: This simple recipe is a modification of the American Wheat kit from MoreBeer (KIT125). My changes:
- 6 lbs of DME instead of 5
- All 6 lbs are Bavarian wheat DME (which is already a mix of wheat and barley malt)
- 2 oz of Hallertau additions. I used German Tradition from morebeer
This beer is hoppy for a wheat, but still much tamer than PA's or IPAs. Very subtle hop finish that balances the initial blast of flavor from the wheat.
I go ahead and cold crash this beer to clear it up, since cloudiness from US-05 isn't going to add any desirable flavors. |
