Notes

Fruit Stand Wheat sips with a smooth texture, starts off with a palate pleasing soft wheat flavor and finishes with a bang thanks to the choice of fruit extract used. Ultimately satisfying and easy drinking.
=====================================================

  • Add all steeping grains to steeping bag and steep as per your
    preferred steeping method. Generally, 155-160 F for 30
    minutes.
  • Remove grains, sparge with 8 Oz of 170* water.
  • Bring water to boil then turn off heat, add LEM extract. Once
    extract is amply mixed, bring back to a boil.
  • Once water comes to a boil, add bittering hops. Both DEM
    extracts are added with 15 Min. remaining.

  • Cool wort, once wort is cooled to 75* - 80 F or lower transfer to
    fermenter, top off to bring to 4.1 gallons. pitch yeast when
    Temp. is 70 or lower.

  • After Fermentation.... let sit on trub for 5-7 days then bottle,
    timing is somewhat flexible.
  • Add 1 Sugar Fizz Drop per 12 oz bottle when bottling.
  • After bottling let sit for 4 to 5 weeks, timing is somewhat
    flexible.

    NOTES:

    Wheat & Golden DME are added with 15 Minutes remaining in the boil.


    Apricot extract added at 2nd fermentation transfer, allow 1 - 2 days to sit, timing is somewhat flexible.
