Ingredients (All Grain5.5 gal)

  • 4 lbs American 2-row

    American 2-row

    Yields a slightly higher extract than Six Rox brewers Malt. Tends to give a smoother, less grainy flavored beer. Some brewers claim they can detect a significant difference in flavor. Lower protein and will yield a lower color than Six-Row Brewers Malt

  • 2 lbs American 6-row Pale

    American 6-row Pale

    Tends to increase lautering efficiency due to a stiffer husk. May be used as the base malt for any beer style. The enzymes in all varieties of the current crop are sufficient to support high percentages of specialty malts and adjuncts.

  • 6 lbs English Wheat Malt

    English Wheat Malt

    Light flavor, creamy head. For wheat beers, stouts, doppelbocks and alt beers.

  • 1 oz Hallertau - 4.5 AA% pellets; boiled 60 min

    Hallertau

    Good for all around bittering and finishing stock ales, Belgian ales, and continental style lagers. Aroma is mild, pleasant and flowery.

  • 1 tsp Irish Moss - (omitted from calculations)

  • BrewTek CL-980 American White Ale

    BrewTek CL-980 American White Ale

    A smooth, American style wheat beer yeast with an exceptionally round, clean malt flavor. The low flocculation of this yeast leaves a cloudy "Hefe-Weizen" yet it's smooth flavor makes it an integral part of a true unfiltered wheat beer.

Notes

Dry hopping with a Williamette or a Cascade here would provide a nice bouquet, but it not really necessary
