For 1/2 cup it would take 16 tangerines for 4oz or 1/2 cup by weight. It takes approximately 2 small tangerines to produce 1 tbls of zest which weighs in at about. I did a little research to see how practical it would be to use tangerine zest in very large batches. That is my reasoning behind using the tangerine extract. Using the zest is still not out of the question and might be practical for a small batch like 5gal but when you look at very large batches, using zest seems to be impractical and cost prohibitive. Yes, I had considered using the zest and there are a couple of suggestions above I might try next time. Otherwise, my son, who loves the tangerine wheat from Lost Coast, says that it is very close but agrees with me on lightening up on the citric flavor and hefeweizen style. I am going to cut down the amount of wheat by 50% next time to see if I can get closer to a match. I suspect that the beer from Lost Coast doesnt have the traditional amount of wheat barley you would find in regular hefeweizen beers. Another thing is when you compare my beer with the beer from Lost Coast Brewery, mine has much more of a wheat taste. I dont think I will add any extract or zest to the boil next time and only do the extract addition during kegging. It is very nice but I plan on a couple changes for the 5th version.įirst of all, by adding the extract and tangerine zest during the boil gave the beer what I think is to much of a citric flavor.
The beer tastes like a typical hefeweizen with a tangerine overtone. That really did the trick and gave the beer a nice tangerine burst of aroma and taste. I followed your suggestions and added 20ml of tangerine extract when racking into the keg. Well, the tangerine wheat beer is in the keg. What do you guys think?įirst of all, thanks you guys for all the great tips. I am thinking about adding the tangerine extract after I filter the beer and keg it. That is where I am at and my experimental batch #4 is almost finished fermenting. My guess is that tangerine extract must be added after fermentation and/or after filtering. My guess at this point is that the tangerine extract or tangerine zest/peals do nothing to get the aroma and flavor into the beer like what you get in the Lost Coast Tangerine Wheat when added to the boil before fermentation. Again, after fermentation was complete, there was no distinct tangerine aroma or flavor but there was an increased amount of citrus aroma and flavor. I added 4oz of tangerine zest and 20ml of tangerine extract to the final 10 min of the boil. Using tangerine slices on the glass gave it a nice touch. After fermentation was complete, there was no tangerine aroma or flavor in the beer, but it tasted really nice and clean with a hit of citrus. This time, I added 10ml of Tangerine Extract to the final 10 min of the boil. My guess is that the extract must have killed the yeast that was remaining in solution when they were bottled. In each case, none of the batches fermented in the bottle and all were flat after 2 months. I racked into a 1 gal container, added 5 different amounts of Tangerine Extract then bottled.
This batch I bottled when SG was at 1.008 and used a 2/3 cup sugar primer for 5 gal. 17oz - 0minġ52deg - 60min, Single Infusion, Double Sparge Don’t get me wrong, except for the first batch, the last two batches turned out really good but lacked that tangerine burst.Īll batches have the same grain bill, hops, yeast and mash process.ġoz Peale. Let me start out by letting you all know what I have done in the previous 3 batches. I am on my forth experimental batch but yet to be successful.
