Notes

This berliner weisse utilizes un-malted whole (white) wheat berries. They must be crushed and cereal mashed before using. Flaked/rolled wheat can be substituted.

This beer also features a sour-mash. Once the sacc. rest is completed, the mash should be cooled to 120 degrees and a handfull of dry grain added to the tun. 24-36 hours is usually a good rest but taste your wort to judge it's sourness for yourself.

A 15 minute boil is enough to kill off any wild bugs and utilize the hops. Pitch with WY3728 Lambic Blend or a combination of ale yeast and lacto (brett doesn't hurt either).
