Another batch of this – for some reason it’s taken ages to drink the last lot! I’m planning on brewing at the weekend.
This is also a different way of showing the recipe details. I’m now using an XSLT file to generate HTML from a BeerXml file. It needs more work to get it looking better, but it’s a start. This was prompted by this post at the Homebrew Forum.

Comments:
23 litres of wort collected from the mash, 19 litres at the end of the boil, about 16 litres into the FV.
Pitched 1 packet of WB-06 mid-afternoon the day after brewing (I forgot about it when waiting for it to reach 12C). Also forgot to measure the OG, but I’ve just done that now and read 11.4Bx = 1.044. This is a couple of hours after the yeast was pitched, but it doesn’t look like they’re doing much yet!
As ever with these batches of wheat beer, this is quite a bit under my target. Beer Engine suggests an overall efficiency of 64%. It’ll still be beer and taste good, though, so I don’t really care!
Bottled with 75g of sugar. FG 1.008, so ABV = 4.7%.
