my first experience with liquid yeast
new alex's variation on Belgian Wit:
preboil tea:
1/2 lb crystal malt
1/2 lb wheat malt
boil:
3.3 lb northerner witbier malt
2 cups of powdered wheat malt
1 oz of Amarillo .75 at start of boil .25 2 minutes before the end
1tbsp of dried sour orange peel
1 lime peel (this and orange peel were split into about 3/4 1/4; 3/4 were added at 10 minutes before the end of the boil, and 1/4 was added about 2 minutes before the end with hops)
after the boil wait for temperature to drop under 200F and i added
juice of one lime
the inners of 1 passion fruit per gallon of wart (i used 3)
let it sit uncovered until the temperature gets to about 165, cover it for 20 minutes to keep it in 165-155 range for 20 minutes, then continue the cooling process
also i had to add almost 6 cups of water to dillute the wart to 1.050
I used wyeast belgian wit yeast slap pack for this one
anyhow, it took off inanely, i have over 3 inches of foam on top right now, fermentation is expected to end by this weekend
that first porter is ready to drink, and its good
