MattC10 Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Hi all! I just wanted to log on to let my brew-brothers know how much I am enjoying the wheat beer I just made...After only 2 weeks of bottle conditioning I find it a flavorful and drinkable brew, slightly cloudy with a pleasantly sweet aroma and scarcely any yeast \u201dtwang". I am looking forward to sharing this and I have already bought another kit that I intend to infuse with my own ingredients (all suggestions welcome). If anyone is looking for a brew kit to try, I definitely recommend this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hairy Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Hey Matt, what was your recipe? Did you use the kit yeast or another? And what temp did you ferment at? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattC10 Posted July 22, 2011 Author Share Posted July 22, 2011 Hi Hairy, nice to hear from you. I used the Coopers Complete Wheat Beer Package. I brewed it at around 22-24C. Here's a link: http://www.makebeer.net/item.asp?idProduct=46&idCategory=112&idSubCategory=0 It is a real treat, and everyone I share it with has enjoyed it!

Hairy Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Nice work! The main thing is that you like it. Other people liking it is an added bonus (although then they expect you to share it). I thought the pack would have included the liquid malt extract. I assume the pack is going for the American Wheat Beer style. It looks good though. Did you use the full 1kg of dextrose with the 500g of LDM? It would have a bit of an alcohol kick to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
91abv_chris Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 I put one in the fermenter last Sunday and it smells great so far! I used - 1.7kg kit 2 cans oregon blackerries (pureed/strained) 1.3kg wheat DME 250-ish gr dex some brewers best blackberry flavoring kit included yeast cooking along a bit warmer than I'd like (78-80F), but oh well I can't wait for it to finish [w00t] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muddy Waters Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 WTF is 78-80F [pinched] [alien] [roll] Yeah, do the conversions for us Chris. We are but simple folk [lol] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
91abv_chris Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Oh come now, I gave grams...why so much hate for fahrenheit? Next you'll want to convert days of the week to metric [tongue] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Australian website, it only makes sense to use Australian terms so the majority know without having to do the conversions. The days of the week are already metric so no need to convert [rightful] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
