Looks nice, but I would leave out the whirflox, Hef should be yeasty and cloudy( for me). I too have difficulty getting the banana esthers to come forwards,clove seems to be good. I have never met a wheat beer I didnt love. Thanks for the video! Weinhenstephen yeast is amazing for getting that delicious Hef flavor ,but requires a good starter.
Well, here in Germany wie have 3 Kinds of Hefeweizen: the pale one, the dark one and the third one is called Kristall Weizen (crystal wheat) wich is completly clear. So this is still in style 😉 And the classic Hefeweizen in Germany are bottle conditioned (except he Kristall) and it‘s common to swirl the last bit of yeast up and pour it in the glas too. That way the Hefeweizen is even more cloudy. Nice video 😊
@@IMakeBeer exactly why I’m scared to do it. I read up on it a lot - I think the move is to cover the fermenter opening with a hop bag soaked in starsan. Let’s air in & out and keeps all the crap out
They are Next Level, but I use Spring.com for my apparel, so it may end up being a different brand at times. I feel they run just a shade small. Thanks for the anticipated purchase.
Hard beers to brew. Yours is looking good!
Thanks. It tastes great.

@@lutti7238 Thanks man...
I want to try an open fermentation to get more expression out of yeast
I’d like to try that too but what “crap” do I have floating around in my basement?

Looks good. But I believe theirs isn't filtered/fined.
Yea I shouldn't have used any finings.
What brand of shirts are you using. I want to order one, how do the sizes run? Awesome choices.
