JonathanM3 Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I'm thinking up a simple wheat beer like this: 1.36 KG Wheat DME 1.5 KG Wheat LME (Coopers) 14 g Sorachi Ace (~13.7 Alpha) 20 min 14 g Sorachi Ace (~13.7 Alpha) 7-10 min 19 L gallon batch, US-05 yeast, full boil Is this going to be bitter enough? All the calculators tell me everything will be OK, but I just haven't had a short boil time like that without hopped LME. I've heard the Sorachi is quite lemony and I thought it would be a complement to the wheat beer. Also, I'm trying to see if I can hook my wife on at least one of my home brews. I know a 20 minute boil is safe for bacteria and all that, I am not sure if that is 'OK' for the end product. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I have done 20 minute boils before..... I have even done an AG with only a 10 minute hop addition. No probs. Don't forget to convert your recipe to metric for this site. Australian site with Australian measurements you are more likely going to get more responses. People don't like having to convert everything just to provide advise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
