Brewie B+ Witbier

Image result for witbierAnother perfect brew day with my B+. Best rolling boil I have achieved to date. 

75 min step mash from 144, 153, to 161 with a 30 min sparge at 168. My recipe was 8.8lbs of pilsner malt and 2.2lbs of wheat malt into 4.6 gal for mash and then 2.4 gal for sparge. Pre boil was 1047 and post boil was 1053. 65% efficiency. Used 5.2 mash stabilizer. 

Great day, again.
