Hi all.
I've made a Bavarian Hefeweizen, annoyingly due to my mistake the OG was 1.030 and the Final gravity is now 1.010. It tastes watery and has an ABV of only 2.65%! I have yet to move into secondary but want to boost the flavour and ABV with some LME. So....
1. Would you guys add LME to primary or secondary? It's been in primary for about 10 days
2. If so what LME would you use?
3. Or would you instead add another fermentable to increase flavour? (fruit?)
4. or do you have nay other ideas!
The malt / yeast / hops were -
Grain 5050g mix of pilsner and wheat
Yeast 10g of mangrove jacks
Hops one addition at 60m (overall boil 60m) of H. Hersbucker
Thanks!
