Gday all,
I've recently come back to home brewing, 20 years in the wilderness! Did half a doz kits & bits, extracts & steeping, and have just done my 3rd BIAB.
I noticed with the two K&K wheaties (using WB-06 & WY3068) that they were ready less than a week after bottling, fully carbed and really fresh tasting. My question: is it the particular weizen yeasts that allow this, or the wheat in the beer, or a bit of both?
I've just put Tony's "New Age Aussie Wheat" into bottles to condition, after doing it as a BIAB, and wonder if the same applies even though I used US-05. The PET bottles feel pretty tight.
Looking at some kegging gear this weekend, bits & bobs of second-hand gear, but that will no doubt be the subject of my next post
cheers
