Notes
Recipe copied and adapted from my Toffee-bomb dunkelweizen (which was James Morton's recipe).
The brew day that just kept giving. Liquid not going through the mash for lauter and sparge...had to keep sparging to get the volume...the brew kettle kept shorting out...then appears the element had burnt a lot of trub...then cleaning up I can't get the tap out...
So, with all of that quite happy with OG 1.055. A bit off but with all things considered not too bad.
Sample didn't taste burnt so I may have been lucky with that.
Noticed that I missed off Light Crystal malt from the grain bill, so will probably not get the toffee bomb effect now. Also noticed that using finings may make this drop too bright to be a Dunkelweizen (the sample was very clear). So may need to re-categorise as Dunkel Kristallweizen. We shall see...
Krausen has hit the roof of the fermenter by day 2 so going great guns.
Day 3 gravity down to 1.022. A little way to go yet. Smells fantastic
Sample tasted very good. A bit of sweetness and lots of bubblegum. Early days of course.
Day 6 gravity down to 1.013. Will give it a few more days yet. Want it to get to target before bottling. Samples not clear so definitely not a Kristallweizen. As long as it tastes good who cares?
Still.drinking this one and my word it is immense. The burning of trub on the false bottom of the boil kettle has actually given it a really interesting smoky twist. Not overpowering at all but just enough to give it interest. Could add small amount of rauchmalt to do this of course.
Definitely a keeper. Second dunkelweizen I have brewed and I will be brewing more.
