Wit ChristmasRecipe Type: all-grain Description: Following is the wit recipe I built and why. Any comments would be appreciated. Reasons for what you see: I used the curacao/coriander schedule from this recipe which won Best of Show at the "Spirit of Belgium" competition in 1994. I went to the Celis page and read up on the hops for Celis white (I was happy to see Cascades). I like cascades and figured using them and centennial would compliment the curacao citrusness. I picked Saaz for flavor/aroma since the style chart in NCJHB say 'nobel type' for hop flavor/aroma. I am undecided if I should just buy the Wyeast Belgian White, or if I should culture it from Hoegarrden... Ingredients: * 11 pounds German 2-row pils * 9-1/2 pounds flaked wheat * 1-1/2 pounds flaked oats * 3/4 ounce Centennial 90 minutes * 1/2 ounce Cascade 45 minutes * 1/2 ounce Cascade 30 minutes * 1 ounce Saaz 15 minutes * 1 ounce Saaz steep * 10 grams coriander in boil * 70 grams curacao in boil * 2-1/2 grams coriander in secondary * Belgian White Wyeast #3944 Procedure: Mash in 110F (43.3C) 10 min. Boost to 128F (53.3C) 30 mins . Boost to 158F (70C) 50 mins. Add spice 10 minutes before knockout. |
