Brewing Dunkel Hefeweizen

limnam

I mostly drink Dunkel's but the choices locally seem to be very limited.

I've no experience with home brewing and was wondering if someone had some reccomendations for kits/recipie's advice for brewing gear that's specific for brewing dunkel hefeweizen

You could steep in a muslin bag some Carafa Special 3 malt and add the darkened wort it to your wheat beer kit. You could do an extract beer kit and steep carafa special 3 too to get a dunkel from regualar wheat beer. A kit beer might be the best way to start off as extract brewing requires using large pots and boiling for 60 minutes.

500g dark DME

What brewing kit would I need to purchase for this?

The Coopers wheat beer kit from hbw or hbc is the one I use. Just make sure to get the safbrew sf-06 yeast as well the yeast that comes with the kit isn't the greatest.
