Hi guys,
Just tried my first two batches of hefe weizen that were my maiden voyage into all grain and they both taste nice and no off flavours etc but the flavour is not strong enough. It tastes a bit faint but all the right flavours are there.
The method is as follow..
40% wheat
50% Pils
10% Munich
Mashed at 66degC for 1 hour
Mashed out at 70degc for 10mins
Batch sparged at 73degC rested for 15mins
OG was 1.049 and FG was 1.010
A nice head forms and is retained thoughout glass.
My thought on giving the beer more flavour was to mash at a higher temp say 68degC. Am i on the right track here or is there soething else I'm missing.
thanks Matt :huh:
