Al's Amber Wheat Beer

Ingredients:

3.3# Can Mutton and Fisson Light Unhopped Extract
2.0# Bag of Unhopped Wheat Dry malt
1.0 oz. Cascade Leaf Hops (Boil)
0.25 oz. Cascade Leaf Hops (Flavor)
0.25 oz. Cascade Leaf Hops (Aroma)
1 tsp. Irish moss
2 Packages Mutton and Fisson Ale Yeast

Procedure:

Remove 1 1/4 cup of wheat malt and save in zip-lock bag for priming.
Bring 1.5 Gallons water and Malts to a boil. When boil starts fully set your stove timer (watch, hourglass, whatever) to 45 mins. For leaf hops I don't use a hop bag, you can if it makes you feel good.
45 Mins: Add Boil Hops - 1.0 oz.
15 Mins: Add Irish moss - 1 tsp.
10 Mins: Add Flavor Hops - .25 oz.
2 Mins: Add Aroma Hops - .25 oz.
0 Mins: Pour through strainer and funnel(with strainer) directly int o carboy with 2+ gallons of cold water as quickly as possible. Fill to top with more cold tap water. swirl carboy to mix hot and cold evenly. Pitch yeast. d top up to 5.5 gallons total volume with cold water. 9) shake up starter, pitch and vigorously stir wort. 10) Ferment ~3 days at ~68F. 11) Rack to secondary. 12) bottle when clear (~1 week) with 1.25 cups light dry malt extract. F.G.: 1.010 Primary Ferment: 4 days Secondary Ferment: 7 days azian, except that I added some acidopholis capsules to the souring mash. I believe that most of the souring was due to the bacteria in the capsules. en cold storage for another week or two.
