Sorry, your question didn't get answered. Got lost "behind" the recipe instructions...Got this kit looks good but might be very hoppy. Also should I boil lme at start of boil.
That's definitely a good start. ^With 3.5 ounces for 60 minutes it's going to be good and bitter. I would add all the dry malts for the last 15 minutes or so. It tends to keep things a little lighter and you don't really need to boil those the whole time.
Whoa! Good observation! I've been reading it as wheat extract. At least 10 timesI also see there is a grain bag and instructions say "after steeping". Is that pound of white wheat actual grains or extract? It would be very odd to just steep a base malt like that...

Did you brew this yet?This is what it should end up as. We will see. Thanks to all. I’m learning as I go along.

They should have instructions in .pdf or so to send to you by email.Thanks for all the advice. And yes that was the kit. Looking closely at the picture I now see there is a step by step brewing instructions page missing. Most everything is “out of stock” so unlikely they have full instructions. The white wheat and caramel malts are grain and unmilled. I don’t want anything overly hoppy so I cut back on some of the hops. Thanks for all the advice.
This (!) makes it pretty much unsuitable to go with dinner: IBU (Tinseth) 126.9Somebody best me to it. Must have had the full and complete recipe.

Does this recipe look like a good tasting beer to go with dinner?
So that's 2 oz in the boil. Compare that to 9 oz in your 7-hop recipe. 4 1/2 times as much hops will of course taste a lot hoppier and bitterness will be very high. Some people like high bitterness, most don't, or are not used to it.with 2 oz cascade pellets and 1 oz cascade dry hop for 5 days. Tastes malty and citrusy.
