Orange Peel and Coriander Hefe Style Beer – Bottling Day

Big thanks to LCassanova from http://www.homebrewtalk.com/ for the base recipe for this beer.  His original recipe is here http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f75/gluten-free-blood-orange-hefe-181144/

My modified version of the recipe is
2.5 Kg's of Sorghum with dark Belgian candi syrup (approximately 300grams) @ 60 Mins
500 grams Glucose Syrup @ 60 mins
500 grams Dark Belgian candi sugar @ 60 mins
15 grams hallertauer hops @ 60 mins
12 grams of tettnang + some hallertauer hops (about 2grams) @ 20mins
8 orange peels @ 20 mins
20 grams of cracked coriander @ 20 mins
12 grams of tettnang + some hallertauer hops (about 2 grams) @ 0 mins
***cold crash***
Yeast nutrient and Fermentis WB-06 Wheat beer yeast.
As you can see from the photo it has a very dark colour similar to a Belgian dubbel.

  1. I cracked the coriander!
    Who knew that brewing beer would be an excellent way to get out the week's pent up frustrations....
