Notes: Basic Hefe. Hops are old. going over the ibu because of this.
Whitelabs Hefe Ale yeast.
Single step BIAB mash at 154.
Grains at 67f
1.5qt/lb strike volume of 9qt @ 167f.
3.9qt boiling water for mashout at 170f.
Brew notes.
-Nailed rest temp @ 154. Resting for one hour. Stirring at 30min. Adding boiling water if temp drops below 150.
- I watched it the first 5-10 minutes and the temp held. I checked it around 30 minutes and the heat was around 156. A good stir brought it back down. Smells pretty good. Very wheaty. That's the plan I guess. Frasiskaner clone next time (didn't have the yeast recommended this time).
- Digital temp probe took a shit at some point. Still think my numbers were good after checking with other thermometer.
- Way low efficiency. Rinsed grains more (Fuck BIAB). Lots of extra water. Going to boil a little while prior to adding hops and starting timer.
-Cooled, pitched yeast. Put in my basement at unknown temp (has been holding the same as my heater 68, I put it closer to the door to hopefully hit 65.)
-24 hours later no visible fermentation (the s airlock has the water pushed to one side though). Moved it deeper into my basement and gave it shake.
-48hr Put my thermometer aside of the carboy, read 60. Moved it closer to the heater, it brought it up to about 65
-62 hr brought it upstairs to around 68.
-chillin for a while.
-It is now Christmas Eve (2016). I forget when I brewed this(Im thinking around 2 weeks), I never noted it. I will figure it out at some point.
I just checked the gravity. I came down to 1011. It tasted good. A fairly good balance of esters. It had a slight sour note which was great. I am tempted to bottle some and play with the rest. I have an American Farmhouse from white labs. Might like to try some fruit. just not sure. Will report back.
- New years eve I bottled one gallon, and put ~1 1/2 gallons in 1 gallon glass jugs.
-one jug has a full gallon and the other less than half. I pitched 90% of the culture into the full gallon by accident and only a little in smaller one. That leaves me with a heavy overpitch and a slight underpitch im guessing. tasting in one month. Will probably blend them together at some point.
-2/18 - Overpitch has gotten quite a bit darker. Underpitch got lighter maybe. Both very clear. overpitch came down to 10.06 and underpitch was at 10.07. It was hard to discern much difference between the two otherwise. I used the underpitch to top off the gallon jug of the overpitch (I needed to free up that jug). Will allow to sit another few months before checking it out. |

Notes: May 2016
The LME is Williams Brewing German Weizenmalt # M77. It is a blend of 60 percent German wheat and 40 percent Moravian 2 row barley. You can do a 50/50 blend by using 3.3 lb bottles each of Wheat and Light Barley LME and get similar results with a little higher gravity. Cut the DME to 10 oz and it's about the same.
The DME is Briess Bavarian Wheat. I cut my propane burner @ 45 minutes and add the DME, hops, whirlfloc and chiller. Turn on the burner and restart your timer when it's boiling again.
I know 2 1/2 ounces of hops sounds like a lot for a Weissbier. The Lubliner is polish hop I bought from Nikobrew about September 2015. It was from the 2012 harvest and the AA is probably not 4.7 anymore but they have a nice herbal quality. The Saaz, a Czech variety, adds a subtle earthy and slightly spicy finish not really common to a Weissbier but it's not in your face.
Now for the yeast. I know US05 is pretty lame. What can I say, I forgot to get a German yeast. Next time something good.
I always rehydrate my yeast in a wort sample I take as I transfer from the boil kettle to the fermenter.
I also always oxegenate the wort with an O2 wand rather than sloshing the wort around inside the fermenter.
