    Corn Flaked (Maize)

    Generally a neutral flavor, used to reduce maltiness of beer. Produces beer with a milder, less malty flavor. Uses: Primarily for light Bohemian and Pilsner lagers.

    Spicy with citrus notes. Slightly grapefruity.

  • 1.8 ea Peaches (pureed) - Last 10 min of Boil (omitted from calculations)

    Peaches (pureed)

    Pink to orange flesh surround a large pit. Very sweet and juicy.

  • Fermentis US-05 Safale US-05

    Fermentis US-05 Safale US-05

    The most famous ale yeast strain found across America, now available as a ready-to-pitch dry yeast. Produces well balanced beers with low diacetyl and a very clean, crisp end palate. Sedimentation: low to medium. Final gravity: medium. Pitching instructions: Re-hydrate the dry yeast into yeast cream in a stirred vessel prior to pitching. Sprinkle the dry yeast in 10 times its own weight of sterile water or wort at 27C± 3C(80F ±6F). Once the expected weight of dry yeast is reconstituted into cream by this method (this takes about 15 to 30 minutes), maintain a gentle stirring for another 30 minutes. Then pitch the resultant cream into the fermentation vessel. Alternatively, pitch dry yeast directly in the fermentation vessel providing the temperature of the wort is above 20C(68F). Progressively sprinkle the dry yeast into the wort ensuring the yeast covers all the surface of wort available in order to avoid clumps. Leave for 30 minutes and then mix the wort e.g. using aeration.

Notes

Turn of the century Oklahoma / Choctaw Native American American Wheat Beer - Updated a bit! If you like raisins, you can substitute the peach for a handful of raisins.

Great Session Beer

2011-08-23 3:54pm

Came out wonderful. Only 5 days in the bottle and its already carbed, and smooth. Smells kind of pilsner-like, tastes like a great wheat beer. Slightly malty finish from the 2-row. Slight nose of clove from wheat and a bit of upped fermentation temp with SA-05
