Killer Bee #2

I've been trying to craft a honey-wheat beer for a couple of months now.  The one I have my heart set on at the moment is a weissenbock, sort of a higher-gravity hefeweizen that I'm calling Killer Bee.  "Killer" because it's final ABV will be above 7%, and "Bee" because it is made with lots of honey.

What can I say?  I love the taste of honey.

Well, the first batch didn't work out so well.  So I made a few adjustments to both the ingredients and to the process, and now I have:

KILLER BEE No. 2

Batch size: 5 gallons

Mash:

6.5 lbs. Light wheat malt

4.0 lbs. Brewer's 2-row malt

2.5 lbs. Cara-Wheat malt

0.3 lbs. Flaked wheat

0.5 lbs. Rice hulls

2.5 lbs. Honey*

Mash water: 4.2 gallons

Hops:

1.0 oz. Hallertauer @ 60 min.

0.5 oz. Cascade @ 6 min.

Yeast:

Wyeast American Wheat 1010

*Add the honey during the last 10 minutes of the boil, 4 minutes before adding the Cascade hops.  Boiling the honey longer than 10 minutes will fade its flavor.
