Hi

I'll be brewing my first Weissbier... Want some input about my recipe..

Batch Size: 19L (5.0Gal)
Total Water: 32L (8.5Gal)

Mash - 60min at 68ºC (154.4F)
- 2Kg (4.40Lb) Wheat Malt
- 2Kg (4.40Lb) Pilsen Malt
- 0.5Kg (1.10Lb) Vienna Malt

Boil - 70min
20g (0.71oz) Hallertauer MittelFruher 30min
30g (1.06oz) Hallertauer MittelFruher 15min

1 pkt Fermentis WB-06

Target

ABV: 5.4%
SRM: 3.75
OG: 1.053
FG: 1.012
IBU: 15.7
 
looks OK to me. not sure if 70 min is a long enough boil for pils... have read conflicting info.
I would recommend liquid yeast if it's an option
 
I have used wb-06 many times & it'll do.
I usually ferment @ 68°F & get almost no banana estery goodness but do get some tartness from the phenols.
my last weizen was fermented with wy3068 @ 70° & its a fruity treat...very much along the lines of Franziskaner.
