A Veritable Cornucopia of Useless Information

If you homebrew, here’s a nice tasty Belgian witbier that’s great for summer consumption (this is not the exact witbier recipe that I used last summer, but it’s very close; I’ll post the original one for comparison later on today):

Malt
3.3 lbs. (1.5 kg) light liquid malt extract (use the palest one available)
2 lbs. dry wheat malt extract
0.5 lbs. cracked wheat grains
0.5 lbs. flaked oat grains

Hops
0.5 oz. Saaz (60 minute boil)
0.75 oz. Goldings (60 minute boil)
0.5 oz. Saaz (15 minute boil)

Spices
1.25 tsp. (0.1 oz.) coriander seeds (15 minute boil)
2 tsp. (0.1 oz.) dried bitter orange peel (15 minute boil)

Yeast
White Labs Belgian Wit Ale Yeast (WLP400)

Optional
2 oz. lactic acid

Steep whole grains in 1/2 gallon water @ 155°F for 30 minutes. Rinse with 1 or 2 pints of 170°F water. Remove grains, add 2 gallons water & extract. Boil for 60 minutes, adding hops and other ingredients as specified.
