Dry Heat Wheat |
This is classic Arizona beer for a few reasons. For one thing, its a beer I've found that most everyone likes and even appreciates. Another is it really ferments well in the mid to upper seventies. It produces a nice banana like flavor with after tones of clove. And finally it is a easy beer to both make and drink during our Dry Hot Summer days. |
| Ingredients: | Simple... | |
| 6 pounds of Wheat DME | 1 oz. German Hallertau Hops |
Wyeast 3068 Weihenstephan Wheat |
| Directions: | ||
| Activate the Yeast Pack according to the direction on the back of the package. In 2 gallons of water, add the Wheat Malt. Stirring the mixture, bring it up to boil. After boil starts, add 1/2 oz. of the Hops, boil for 45 minutes. Add the remaining 1/2 oz. of hops and boil for an additional 15 minutes. Turn off heat. Gently stir for a few minutes. Cool the wort and add to fermenter and top off to 5 gallons with very cold water. HINT: 8 Lbs of good filtered ice = 1 gallon of water. Top off to 5 gallons. After the temperature cools to 80*F. or cooler, open the yeast package and pour the contents on top of the wort. Ferment 7-10 days at 68* -72*F. You can also go from primary to secondary after 5 days and leave in secondary 7 days. The final specific gravity should be 1.010 - 1.012. To bottle, rack into bottling bucket. Heat 12 oz of water and 3/4 cup dextrose in microwave for 2 minutes, then add to bottling bucket. Stir gently but thoroughly. Bottle and cap. Store at room temperature 7 - 10 days, then chill as needed and enjoy. Tips: Don't boil the wort to hard. A nice rolling boil is ideal. Stay very sanitized during the brewing, fermenting and packaging of your beer. Most importantly, enjoy yourself. |
