Got a question on this topic too. Are you supposed to cold crash these styles. I did for 3 days and kegged today. Seemed to be really clear. Just hoping I didn't stuff it. Tasted good though, some nice banana and clove flavours coming through.

My simple setup (MultMuncher 3 Roller from Cheeky Peak)
Works really well, no effort required which is why I still use the handle.
So should wheat be crushed at a different mill setting to other grains?
Haven't had this prob before with my mill. Used same settings as other brews that didn't get stuck.
Well that Brew day didn't turn out as expected. My worst one so far.
Firstly when I started mashing in, the top half of the centre tube in the Robobrew fell off and into the mash. Had to lift the mash tunnel up to fish it out.
After the 60 min mash, gravity wast 1.046. Got a stuck sparge (no...
Want to do my first wheat beer for the wife using grains I already have. Was thinking the following:
2.5kg Vienna
2.5kg Wheat
Hops: Either Tettnang or Magnum?? at 60 min to get to about 15-20 IBU
WLP 300 Hefeweizen Ale Yeast
60 or 90 min mash? @64
60 or 90 min boil?
23L into fermenter. Ferment...
So looking at doing this over the weekend.
2.75kg Vienna
1.75kg Red X
0.5kg Wheat
13g Chinook 60 min boil
52g Falconers Flight Whirlpool
MJ42 Yeast
No Chill
Mash at 66, boil for 60 mins
21 L
Est OG 1.055
Est FG 1.013
Kegged
Any thoughts on this?
Ive got the Robobrew with inbuilt pump, never had this problem before. Done 6 brews through it now.
Ive done one brew using chiller and the rest no chill.
OG has vared between 1.0454 to 1.067. All gotten down to expected FG, using Dry yeast only (re-hydrated).
What are you brewing; recipe...
So I am going to go with this for the grain bill
3.5kg Red X
1.2kg MO (That's what was left over after pouring it into my container, can add more if I need)
800g Wheat
Might try MJ42 as yeast
Thoughts?
Now I'm unsure of what hop to use. Would Tettnang be any good or go with Waimea?
Will be...
