Check ph daily until it's at your desired ph level, ~3.0-3.2 ph. Usually 2-3 days.

Boil wort for 10 mins to stop Lacto activity. Add hops at start of boil.

Tasting
notes		A Hibiscus flavored Berliner Weisse recipe I developed.

The beer has a slight haze from the wheat, a bright pink color from the dry Hibiscus flowers, and a bright white head. Wonderfully fruity and tangy flavor of hibiscus works perfectly with the sourness of the Berliner Weisse.
