What are you brewing II ?

[brettprevans]

my current recipe calls for 3.5kg of flaked wheat in a 21L batch. im pretty sure 3kg of flour would make dough ball city.

 

[Fourstar]

got flour ?

there is a reasonably well known recipe(tropical flour wit) that uses a kilo of flour I think. Apparently it works quite well and doesn't glug it up too much.

you'd want to use unbleached organic wouldnt you?

my current recipe calls for 3.5kg of flaked wheat in a 21L batch. im pretty sure 3kg of flour would make dough ball city.

What about wholemeal flour ? i wonder if that makes a difference?

Would make a different colour dough ball.

 

[Fourstar]

Would make a different colour dough ball.

I was thinking you have some of the meal/bran/husk/whatever and will help keep it loose

Wow, that's a heap of wheat.
I'm pretty sure grain and grape stock joe white unmalted wheat now too, however I don't think it's on their website.

Personally I'd just be doing a single infusion at 64c for a nice dry light beer.
There's really no need for the steps, but if you want to do them, go for it.
