Start with water, DME, unmalted wheat, honey and bittering hops (.25oz Tettnager). Follow times and amounts below for the rest of the process. NOTE: Overboiling may cause too much of the raw wheat's haze-forming protein to be released so keep it 5-6 mins. |

Log: | Fermentation tempature for both stages is 68-65°F. Primary fermentation time is ~5 days. It is ready ro track to secondary when the gravity has dropped below 1.025. Secodnary fermentation time is 20 days. Prime with 3/4 cup corn sugar (use white unless you want do darken the brew a little). | |||||||
Tasting: | This came out to be a semi-sweet beer. I am considering using more clove honey instead of corn sugar at bottling time. |
