Notes

Heavily based on this article: https://byo.com/article/german-hefeweizen-style-profile/
This had a good comparison of yeast options: https://homebrewacademy.com/hefeweizen-recipe/
Selected Red Wheat mostly because it was cheapest at AIH at the time, but reading suggest it and White Wheat could be used interchangeably.
No starter, due to several sources suggesting that underpitching a bit is helpful for more tasty esters.
