Recipe Notes:

There are many different wheat varieties and percentages you can go with depending on the exact flavor profile you are going with. We use about 15 percent malted red wheat and 25 percent unmalted (raw) white wheat. I find that the raw wheat adds a nice cracker/cereal like wheat flavor, while helping with the haze.
