Evening Weizen
Weizen/Weissbier • All Grain • 19.50 L
I am not going to brew this, since this recipe is pretty ordinary except the use of Munich malt. I am going to brew much lighter less alcoholic one with less wheat than barley, for drinking in the afternoon. BeerTool's recipe generator gave this one. Thanks!

Notes
I brewed this! I could not resist. 2 step temperature mashing with a mash-out. Protein rest: 50C for 30 min. Saccharification rest: 65C for 90 min. Mash-out: 75.6C for 10 min. Boiled for 120 min. since I got 27.8 litters of pre-boil wort. The evaporation rate for my boiling tun is about 3.9 litters. Brewed on 2/26/16. The OG was 1.060. It seemed too high. Also the color was much darker than that had been calculated, which reminded me of weizen bock. May be too much use of Munich.
