Notes: Brew day came in low on OG and a lil high on volume. Add some dme?
========================================
01/31/2022
boosting up abv a little from last year. not sure which system i will brew this on but probably the old one. maybe boost abv a little more since efficiency is bad? or reduce efficiency back down to 60 which is what the previous brew was.
was playing with water chem but issues with alkalinity....not sure if its the software or what. maybe just run it on tap...
time crunch this will be more of an american rendition subbing lutra in for what normally is chico for american wheat beer.
========================================
01/22/2021
brewed last night. forgot to add the water agents smh. original recipe had me at 75% efficiency for 1050 OG, came out with 60% for 1040 smh. idk why i thought i would get 75, maybe because recently ive gotten higher efficiencies with double crushing the grain, but also this beer has a lot of flaked wheat and oats so i shouldve known it would be low.
Really if I had done my rule of thumb and left out the flaked stuff in the calculation i wouldve gotten to 75% on the rest of the grain bill.
========================================
01/14/2021
revamping last years OFFSZN for rebrew as mommys bier 2.
* adding water profile and brewing salts. using shared ward labs profile for henrico county for september 2020.
* reducing nugget bittering addition from 0.5 for 60 to 0.4 for 45 to fall more in the middle of the accepted IBU range for this style
* reducing 2row from 4.5 to 4.5lb to account for good efficiency last time, knock the beer abv down from 5.89 to 5.3 (also more in the accepted range)
* added acidulated malt for mash pH
.....should i scale this up to 10 gallons though???? might not have space in the fermentation chamber....
========================================

Brew day
Originally was supposed to hit 1049 on 5.5gal with 75%. Came out a little under vol, but 1055. Updated recipe as such.
I thought I was going to come out way under because of how light the wort was. And it's a small grain bill compared to recent recipes.
========================================
2/19/2020
initial notes.
notes / changes from original aha receipe :
* swapped out yeast for wyeast.
* this is 5.5 gallons. since its even grain and hop values just leave it like that and aim for 5.5
* the spices are supposed to go in at flameout for only 5 mins in whirlpool - prob need to use a bag.
* recipe calls for 90 min boil but i dont think that is necessary. * ferment at 63 for 7 days then free rise to 73 for remainder.
* original recipe :

Notes: Double Decoction:
*Note: Pilsner Urquell uses a triple decoction method with an initial acid rest, but I use well enough modified malts and correct for pH already so the first of three decoctions is unnecessary. The decoction measurements below are ones I developed for an electric system and err on the side of caution, so they are the lower amounts needed to potentially reach the next temperature step and direct heat can be applied to compensate.*
Perform a protein rest at 125F for 15min, then pull off slightly less than 1/3 (1.16gal/4.4L) of the thickest mash and place it in a separate pot. Bring the pot slowly up to 158F and hold for 15min, then slowly bring it up to a boil and proceed to boil for 10min. Stir often so the grains do not burn, but try to allow some 'browning' to help darken the colour and enhance the flavour/aroma profiles. Add the decoction back to the 125F mash, little by little, aiming for a beta rest temperature of 148F. Hold this temperature for 30min while adding back any leftover decoction (if any) as it cools. After this has finished, pull off roughly 1/6 (0.7gal/2.6L) of the thickest mash a second time and place it in the separate pot. Slowly bring the pot up to a boil and continue to boil for 10min. Add the second decoction back to the mash, little by little, aiming for an alpha rest temperature of 158F. Hold this temperature for 30min while adding back any leftover decoction (if any) as it cools. Once this rest has finished, raise the temperature up to a mash out rest of 167F and hold for 10min. After the decoctions and mash out are finished proceed to sparge/lauter as usual.
No Decoction:
Instead of the labour intensive double decoction mash schedule you could:
- Substitute some of the pilsner malt for vienna and/or munich to add colour and depth.
- Include some melanoidin malt for a slight decoction 'feel'.
- Add some carapils malt (or your preferred alternative) for improved head retention.
- After which, just carry out a temperature/infusion mash schedule based on your preferences.
**This beer won a national silver medal at the Saskatoon Headhunters Competition (2017) and has consistently scored 40's at other national competitions.
***With the regular 3.5%AA Saaz the hop additions are 1.5oz @ 90min, 2oz @ 20min, 1oz @ 10min, 1oz @ 0min. |

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'.

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 |
