Saaz?

[flano]

Ok thanks for the advice everyone.
Next time I am at the HBS I will get some lager yeast as Nick suggested...have heaps of saaz left over.
Is the stuff I used in Pilsener ( the yellow pkt ) s-us 23 the go? It stinks a bit during fermtation??

this is what I did....as with most beers I make, I do a fair bit of ad libbing as I go.

from memory . have it written down at home.

3.5 kg JW trad
0.4 kg pale wheat
0.4 kg munich 1
0.25 kg caramalt

90mins

60 mins 20grms cascade
15 mins 20grms saaz + 1/2 whirlfloc tablet
5 mins 20 grams saaz
5 mins 15 grms dried navel orange rind
5 mins teaspoon crushed corriander seed

tasted pretty wild with the last hop addition...but also super duper sweet.

anyway got it perculating at between 16-18 dgrs.

It's a decent lager yeast. I prefer S189 and 34/70 to it but, they're all good. Keep the S23 below 12C though if you can.

What's with the orange peels and corriander? Get some Wyeast 3944 if you want it to taste like a belgian wit.

I tried a pale ale that has orange peel and corriander in it.
I read a recipe for an ale that has cascade and saaz in it.

so I took a wild swing .
