Notes

Gentle simmer of a boil for this witbier. (as suggested by Pierre Celis) Marmalade dissolved in hot wort, then added back to kettle. After boil ends, wort chiller cooled beer to ~160F. Then 11L of wort was transfered to carboy to be soured. 18 bags of Just Us pure rooibos tea bags (30-35g?) were added to the remaining wort. The tea bags were left to steep for about 15 minutes. Wort chilling continued after steeping time. souring batch: 2 handfuls of pilsner malt in wort at ~115F. Left in water bath on top of wood stove. Temperature should hold around 95F with wood fire. design inspiration: http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f71/el-segundo-grado-witbier-87679/
