Notes: "Greg's Classic Stout"

*Didn't have enough hops so boiled for 30 mins with only 1.5kg malt extract, then another 60mins with the rest. This will bring it up to 60 IBU.

Surprisingly, a classic stout! If you like dark beer but shy away from the tanginess of Guiness, this brew is sure to peak your interest.

Don't use jet black roasted barley. Look for a deep dark brown colour roasted barley. Black or chocolate malt is no substitute when making a "classic" stout. Steep grains at 66-70 for 45 mins. Not expecting much conversion... it's mainly for body, flavour, freshness, colour and head retention.

Add gypsum for 60min boil (or don't add it).

Use English hops (such as Northern Brewer, Goldings, Fuggles)

Use Irish Ale type yeast (or English ale if you must). Aerate wort very well.

Enjoy within 3-4 weeks from brew day.

Consider swapping out some dark malt extract for additional head retention malt.

Notes: An easy brew, a good brew, just remember its not rocket science.....but it is science. .........enjoy. I will brew 4 five gallon batches in plastic fermenters in 2 days, bottle two weeks later. test 2 weeks after that. Then watch all the "Friends" start hangin out Hey by the way these are 213 Calories per brew. Its a real good heavy ale. For max effect wear a Kilt.

Notes: Decided to use Coopers Wheat beer kit + Wheat DME, and add a little Hallertauer (classic Bavarian weissbier hops) both for aroma and bitter (10 and 60 min). Since the kit already has some hops, I'll just use a tiny bit (10-20g in ~10-15 liters wort =~3 AAU) to be on the safe side, yet be able to try boiling and adding hops. No dry hopping.
Make sure to do a clean racking to bottling bucket, so there's only some yeast in the bottle, like a real hefeweizen.

Made with 500g LDME and 300g Dextrose, (like package suggests) 150g malted wheat steeped for 20min, and 10g Saaz dry in the fermentor from day 4 til day 10. Used the kit yeast at 19-21'C. Turned out quite well after 3 weeks with a very pale body and a nicely white, fluffy head. The body isn't overly light, and the taste is delicate and well balanced with a nice impart from the Saaz. Perfect for hot summer days. Only other comment is that it would benefit from a proper wheat yeast such as WB-06. I'd give this a no-joking 5-star rating.

Another user used wyeast 3068 (for real German tasting weissen, not American hefeweize)

From: http://www.ratebeerkits.com/items/view/coopers-wheat-beer

Coopers site suggests using kit + 1 kg of Coopers Wheat malt and WB-06 / Munich yeast; to make 'Hefeweizen'.

For those interested: poster Les posted this from another board from Down Under. It's close enough that I'm going to give this a whirl:

(6 gal batch)

~2kg Wheat Dry Extract (62.5%)
~1.1 Light Dry Extract (37.5%)
12 grams Tettnang (90') 6.4 IBU
9 g Pearle (90') 8.6 IBU
7 g Tettnang (45') 3.4 IBU
7 g Tettnang (15') 1.0 IBU
1 pkg Weihenstephan Wyeast #3068)

Beer Profile Estimated Original Gravity: 1.051 SG (1.044-1.052 SG)
Estimated Final Gravity: 1.010 SG (1.010-1.014 SG)
Estimated Color: 13.6 EBC (3.9-15.8 EBC)
Bitterness: 19.3 IBU (8.0-15.0 IBU)
Estimated Alcohol by Volume: 5.3 % (4.3-5.6 %) Actual Alcohol by Volume: 5.3 %
Actual Calories: 475 cal/l

Start with ~2-1/2 gallons of water in the pot and bring to the boil. Remove from heat and add 2.2# of the DME (wheat or barley, shouldn't make a difference), and dissolve. Return to the heat to boil (watch for boilovers!) Add the remaining DME (off the heat) in the last 5 or 10 minutes of the boil.
The advantage of the DME limited quantity boil, is that you can cool in a laundry sink or bathtub of cold water.

Ferment with 30% headspace at or below 68 deg F; bottle as soon as fermentation is complete
