Moved Hefe to Secondary

Posted by kkozlen on June 24, 2008 in Homebrew |

Last week was busy and I had a wedding this past weekend, so I finally moved the hefeweizen over to the secondary after 2 weeks in the primary. Again, I’m experimenting a little… I went to a local flea market and bought a 5 gal. carboy for $6. This allowed me to split the 6 gallons into 2 carboys – 1 with 2.5 gal. and one with 3.5 gal. In the secondary carboy with 2.5 gallons, I added 1 can of Oregon red raspberries with juice to make a raspberry hefeweizen. Again, I’ll let you know how it turns out when I bottle it in a week.

I’ve already purchased the ingredients to brew an IPA this weekend… This is partly because of my excitment that my local homebrew shop finally has a new supply of hops. I bought several packs of Cascade hops for my upcoming IPA recipe. I’ll post the recipe next week after I brew.
