I have made that beer a few different times, it is an excellent recipe.__________________"You can't be a real country unless you have a beer and an airline - it helps if you have some kind of a footballteam, or some nuclear weapons, but at the very least you need a beer."

ale or pilsner

Is this an ale or pilsner - what's a good fermentation temp? If an ale, then why the pilsner malt (could you use anale malt instead?) I recently had a friend ask me if I've ever brewed a wit beer, and that weekend we had some Mothership Wit(New Belgium Brewing) and Blue Moon, and it really got me thinking or the homebrew possibilities! Also, do youuse orange peel from the brew store, or actually scrape the outer rind from an orange? THANKS!!!

4.75 lb Belgian Pilsner (2 Row) 3.00 lb White Wheat Malt 2.5 lb Flaked Wheat0.50 oz Cascade (7.5%) (30min) 0.50 oz Cascade (7.5%) (5 min) 0.50 oz Orange Peel, Bitter (Boil 15.0 min) 0.50 oz Coriander Seed, Crushed (Boil 15.0 min) 1 Pkg Belgian Wit Ale (White Labs #WLP400)

Mash Schedule:Single InfusionTotal Grain Weight (lb's)--10.25

Mash In:4.0 gallons strike at 163 F to obtain 152 F 60 minMash Out:3.0 Gallons at 172 F for 15 min

I'm fresh out of all brew right now, but I'm planning a brew day Saturday using this recipe. This beer is just asdelicious as AHS's Blue Moon if not better. If there are any questions regarding the recipe, just let me know.

Happy brewing,Jacob

Well, first of all I didn't personally make this recipe. This is an AHS recipe. I imagine that you could use any palebase grain and thats why the creator of this recipe chose Belgian Pilsner. It isn't a Pilsner, it's a Belgian Ale, andis best fermented (According to White Labs,) from 67-74 F. The orange peel can be bought from the brew shop.I've never tried fresh orange, but I've heard of people putting zest in their brews. If you ask for the orange atyour LHBS, they will know what you're talking about. Now I've made this recipe bunches of times and the grain billseams to be good, so I haven't changed it.__________________

pilsner malt is just the base grain, not the style. If you used a different base malt, you wouldn't be making thesame beer.__________________In process-Kegged- Last bit of Sparkling MeadPlanning- Witbier

Hey, i was thinking about brewing this recipe soon. Just one quick question: is the boil time shorted (like 30 min)or do you still use a full 60 minute boil?

Chromados

For extract brewers 60 would be acceptable. For all grain, 90 is almosy always reccommended for recipes usingpils malt to reduce dms.__________________In process-Kegged- Last bit of Sparkling MeadPlanning- Witbier
