8/16/2017: Recipe formulation. I've created this recipe as a fun and simple (as simple as can be while keeping it fun and interesting) all-grain demonstration on behalf of the Green Bay Rackers Homebrew Club. It will be brewed on Saturday, August 19, 2017 at House of Homebrew. I wanted to brew a beer that was experimental and unique that you wouldn't find many (if any) commercial examples of. This could be for good reason! Haha who brews a black wheat beer with spices anyway? The only close example I can think of is Baaad Boy Black Wheat from 3 Sheeps. I've had it personally and it was a delicious beer! You can't get this one anymore but that's one of the reasons why we brew our own!
Anyway, recipe details: I've chosen to brew this with at least 75% base malts---primarily red wheat malt and then filling in the rest with Pilsner Malt. Approximately 10% of the bill is flaked wheat for mouthfeel and authenticity to wheat beer. The other 15% is used to "blacken" the beer. We need to keep in mind that this is supposed to be a black wheat beer without tasting overwhelmingly roasted!
The "black" 15%: 8oz of Black Malt since it has the ability to darken while keeping the head nice and light. 7oz of Carafa II because it darkens beer nicely without adding too much "roastiness" to a beer. Finally, the Chocolate Malt is an addition to further darken the beer. This will darken the beer without adversely affecting the "roastiness" of the flavor.
A little side-note: Midnight Wheat malt is my preference in specialty grains to darken up a beer with little impact to flavor. Unfortunately, it was not stocked at the time. This should turn out to be at least an interesting (and most likely delicous!) homebrew to add to the line of taps for everyone that visits House of Homebrew!

Notes: I actually doubled the specialty grains and cold steeped them instead of the normal 150° steep. The grains were steeped for about 27 hours, mostly in the fridge in a 1 gallon water jug with about half a gallon of water in it. The grain tea was then strained into the wort with about 15 minutes left on the boil.
This brew spent 3 weeks in the primary fermenter with no secondary.
