Wheat Beer

[Tom Innes]

I have a Brewcraft Bavarian Wheat Beer kit (and a can of light malt to go with it instead of Sugar). Any suggestions as to how I can enhance this kit? One I have had already is to add the peel and juice of half a dozen lemons to the wort before pitching the yeast. Is this a good idea? Would I be better to add that once the initial ferment is over (less risk of infection once alcohol content is up a bit), or perhaps I should freeze or boil the lemon juice and peel first? Any tips on the lemons or any other improvements would be appreciated. Cheers.

Just remembered that a friend used WB-06 with a Munton's Blonde Kit - was actually quite good - way better that the so called 'wheat' kits I've tried. But generally, I agree that kits are dissapointing for this style - which is a shame for a wheat-loving, kit brewer like me.
