I'm planning to make a wheat with a bit of difference - I want to ad honey and chamomile flowers. My problem is with the flowers.
Did anybody try it before?
I don't want it to be overpowering - looking for just a hint of chamomile.
I have no idea how much to put in and when (making a 22 litre batch)

Thanks

I have only used chamomile flowers once in a witbier. I used 2 grams at 5 mins and it was way too much.

Thank you sir.

Just for interest sake - found a recipe on beersmith for a witbier where they suggest 0.8 grams (not to sure how to measure that)
