My dunkelweizen experiment
Posted: Sunday May 27, 2007 10:27 pm
Hi all,
Just chucked one of these down and I'm quite excited about it. I've just racked a weizen using 3068 yeast and I wanted something to throw on the yeast cake. I got a Brewiser Wheat kit from Big W so decided to experiment. Here's what I did:
Will keep you posted on the results...
Cheers,
Tim
Just chucked one of these down and I'm quite excited about it. I've just racked a weizen using 3068 yeast and I wanted something to throw on the yeast cake. I got a Brewiser Wheat kit from Big W so decided to experiment. Here's what I did:
- 50g Choc Malt
200g Crystal
100g Rolled Oats
6g coriander seeds
150g Yellowbox honey
450g LDME
6g Tettnang
- Steep the grains and oats at about 70deg for 45 mins. Drain and sparge
Bring to the boil with honey, coriander and LDME. There's about 4 litres volume at this point.
When at the boil, add hops and boil 10mins
Add kit, top up to 19L on top of yeast cake
Will keep you posted on the results...
Cheers,
Tim
