Entschuldigungen. Mein Deutsch ist nicht sehr gut. Mein Bruder ist heute in
München, und ich wünsche ihn mich kaufen einige Hopfen. Wo in München
könnte er mich frische Hopfen kaufen? Auch ich versuche, Hefeweizen in
Kanada zu brauen. http://forum.northernbrewer.com/viewtopic.php?t=40751&start
=0 Haben Sie irgendwelche Anmerkungen?
Danke!

HiHo and many greetings to Canada!
I used Google to find any brewshop in Munich, but Google didn't find
one.
How long will your brother stay in Munich? Maybe he can order some hops in
Germany - but I think it's even possible for you to order right from
Canada?
I don't know if it is even possible to bring foodstuff inside Canada? So it
might be easier to order in Germany and ship it.
Take a look at this page : http://www.hobbybrauer.de/modules.php?name=locator®ion=7
There you find some homebrewers near Munich registrated in this forum.
Write a PM to them. Maybe they can help you!
Here's thee link to the shop of this forum: https://www.hobbybrauershop.de/index.php
Greetings!
Matthias

Hello! Welcome to the world's best homebrew-forum!
Well, there is a little problem, as there are no shops for homebrewers in
Munich. Maybe your brother is able to visit the hop-museum
(http://www.hopfenmuseum.de) in Wolnzach (about 60 km northern of Munich),
where is the posibility to buy hop. But he should call the museum first,
because I know, that some of us have already bougth hop there, but I do'nt
know whether this posibility is given at every time.
The harvest in this region will start in a few weeks, so I think maybe
there will be better chances after the harvest! ____________________ Interpunktion und Orthographie des Postings ist frei erfunden.

Thank you for the information. I was not sure when the harvest was, and
thought it may already be in progress. My brother is only in Germany for a
few days, but I will be in Germany (Hoffentlich) in late September/early
October on a brewery tour. Perhaps I will be able to track down some hops
then. As I said in my first post, I am trying to make a south German
Hefeweizen. I am using Weyermann Malz, (Weizen und Pilsner) und Hallertaur
hopfen. I also have access to Wyeast and White Labs Hefe strains. Does
anyone know of a recipe that would come close to something like Fraziskaner
Hefeweizen?
Thank you all for your information! I got into home brewing after visiting
Germany, and realizing that the beer we have here in Canada is for the most
part very poor quality.
Prost!

Hello selair,
I think every homebrew Hefeweizen is better than an imported one. A Weizen
has to be fresh, and that's impsossible if you ship it via the Atlantic.
I suppose to use about 50-60% wheat malt, 30-40% pilsner and 10-20% light
caramel or Muenchner malt, depending on whether you like it very light or a
little more amber and malty. Mash in at about 45ºC and have rests at 55, 62
and 72ºC. Use WYEAST Weihenstephan or Bavarian Wheat yeast. The primary
fermentation needs about 3-4 days at about 20ºC, then bottle-condition with
about 10% wort for about a week at the same temperature. Lager at least 3
weeks in the refrigerator or a cool place.
I like most Tettnanger hop for my Hefeweizen, but Hallertauer may be as
well. The Hefeweizen is only lightly hopped, not more than about 8-12 IBU.
I mostly use about 20g of 4% alpha for 20l beer with a cooking time of
about 60 minutes.
Good look for your batch !

One more question Berliner. What would your target gravity be for that
hefeweizen? About 1.050 sg? And do you have only one hop addition, or do
you have a 60 min and then a 15min addition as well?
Prost!

Hi selair!
For a Weizen, the hop is rather unimportant. Just add any hop you like
after the protein break and boil it for around 60 minutes and try to get
around 15-20 (better less than more) IBU. 1.049-1.053 SG would be fine
(12-13°P).

Yes, about 1.050 SG is o.k., maybe a little more. With an FG of about 1.012
you should get about 5% AbV.
I boil all the hop for 60min, but you can add additional 30-50% hop 15min
before the end as well if you like a (very) slightly hop aroma. But that's
a matter of taste.

Do you do decoction mashing with your Hefeweizens? I read a book by Eric
Warner who suggests all Hefeweizens should be decoction mashed, but I think
this may be out of date.

Hi selair!
Well, my favourite is the following:
Mash in at 35° C with 20L water and an 4 kg wheat malt and 2 kg pilsner
malt.
Immedeately heat up to 42°C and have a 20 minutes rest.
Heat up to 63°C and rest another 30 min.
Go to 72°C and wait some 30 minutes more.
Heat up to 72°C and mash out.
Have 23L water prepared for rinsing.
Add any hop you want get 15-20 IBU. Suggestion: 80g Spalter Mercur 8%aa at
boiling start for 60 minutes.
Or throw 56g Magnum (11.5%aa) into the kettle.
Have fun and enjoy you weizen! :-)
And of course tell us how it was...

Selair, yes, I mostly do a single decoction. I mash in very thick at 45°C
and infuse hot water to get to the 55 and 62°C rests. For the last step
from 62 to 72°C I do a decoction with about 30% of the mash, but I cook it
only for about 5 minutes. I tried before a triple decoction, but this, in
my opinion, doesn't fit the freshness of a hefeweizen.
