I used 1/4 cup of Turbinado in my starter, but I forgot to throw the table sugar in the boil.
I ended up using ~1lb of rice hulls in my mash and was still completely stuck when I opened the valve on my mashtun to sparge. This is the first time I've ever brewed a wheat beer. I blew the valve out with an air compressor and didn't have any more issues.
The wort was A LOT darker than a Hoegaarden, but the orange and coriander were definitely present when it went into the fermenter last night. It may not be a perfect Hoegaarden clone, but the blowoff tube attached to my fermenter is really blowing bubbles right now so I guess it will make some beer
Is it okay to leave something like this in the primary bucket for 3 weeks? All of my carboys are full and it's supposed to be a cloudy beer, so I figured I would not bother racking it.
