Honey Weizen boil 02/14/10

Scroll down to the bottom to see the whole process! Here is the siphon from boil pot to fermenter. Nice honey color, with a yellow hue. Hope it'll stay this color through to bottling/imbibing!
Here is the first use of my immersion wort chiller I purchased from Northern Brewer. I had a 77 degree batch of wort in about 10 minutes. Used to take almost an hour to get down to that temp. This is supposed to help make a crisper/purer brew, given the rapid cooling. Can't wait to try the results!

Heating up the Wheat LME and clover honey.

Here are the ingredients in my Northern Brewer Honey Weizen kit. Boiled on St. V day. Looking forward to a nice spring ale!


Here are some pics of the Valentine's day Honey Weizen. Not sure what we'll call it, mayber Cupidity or something corny like that. It was a really easy boil, with simply LME, an early tettnang hop addtion and a late honey addition. Hopefully we'll have a nice honey mouthfeel and aroma!
