By SD-SLIM KEEP IBU at 11.9ish! Here's the 6G recipe, which I recommend using for myself next time @ 5G: 6.25lbs Pale Malt (2 Row) 4lbs White Wheat Malt 1lb Vienna Malt ****Mash 158 for 45 minutes**** 0.25 Motueka Hops at 60 Minutes 0.25 Sorachi Ace 20 minutes 0.25 Motueka Hops 20 minutes 0.25 Sorachi Ace 7 Minutes 0.50 Lime Zest 5 Minutes White Labs Hefeweizen IV Ale Yeast ****Start Vigorous Fermentation**** After Vigorous Fermentation subsides, add 1.75L Simply Limeade ****Ferment for a minimum of 3 weeks**** This following recipe was a guestimation at a 5G recipe, landing you 4.5 gallons of wort, with the extra .5 gallons being saved for the Limeade. 1/17/2020: Go with 6.8 Boil Next time if you want roughly 4.5 gallons. 7.1 gave me 5 gallons on the dot which is weird. Had to pour out wort for the first time. :( I did get 80% efficiency, which is pretty damn good. 4/16/2021: Got 66% efficiency. Strange. Bump this one up to 73% and retry. that’s a number that will allow you to be pleased either way. Add grain so that 5.5% is hit.
