Good luck. Sounds like a great brew!
It is a fun hobby I have stopped and started several times. Sometimes I will get real caught up in it and make a ton of beer. Then one day I will get tired of it and end up packing it all up. That is where I am at now. I have all my stuff packed into my reach-in and attic. I just do not drink much anymore. |

Just a tip when doing the extract batches, don't add all the extract in at the beginning of the boil. Put in about 1/3 of it in at the start, then add the rest at flameout. It helps to keep some of the camel-ish flavors out of your beer.

I bottled mine for a few years when I lived in an apartment. We moved into a home without a dishwasher, and no space for one, so sanitizing bottles became a pain and I quit brewing for a few years. Girlfriend ended up buying me a kegging setup and it's been a steady supply ever since.

Dark brown wheat?...you mean their Dunkelweizen?
All my hobbies wax and wane. Brewing is going strong probably because it's really the perfect hobby. |

Even with a partial boil? I have to do about a 3 gallon boil, and add water at the end. |
