If I were to do a minimash I would use:
4.0 kg LWME
1.5 kg LLME
The rest of the grain and hops as specified in the recipe.
Mash the grains in 8L of water at 65C for at least 60 min (90 if you can). Strain into your boiling pot and top up with 20L of water and add the rest of the extract, boil for 90 and add the hops as required. Cool to pitching temp and proceed as per normal.
Not sure if that is all you need? Maybe I am missing something?

Way too high?? Two oranges (or mandarins) + bag of corriander seeds is about $2.00 !!
Or 8c per longneck !

James L wrote:I think for Hefewiezens, you want a final IBU of about 25... so you might want to add all 25g at 60 minutes, and just add the 12.5g tettenager at 15 and 12.5g at 5 minutes... the hallertau itself should give 15IBUs... then you might get another 5 or 6 from the tettenager....
James L wrote:you will still get that aroma from the yeast at 22C, you could even leave out the 5 min addition if you wish, as it wont add too much to the bitterness anyways if you're worried... but i wouldnt really worry about the 30 min addition, just stick with the 60 min and the 15 min... but add 15g instead of 12.5 at 15mins... to compensate.
I must admit, that i never added hops at 5 mins, but i did dry hop the beer in secondary with tettenager, and the banana aroma was still very strong. lovely...

I mainly rack to reduce the amount of sediment in the bottle - I'm not too bothered about the appearance apart from that. If you don't want to rack then that's OK - you might just want to leave the brew in the primary for longer.
