How much corriander seed to put in a brew of 23 liters?
Should I toast it first?
Add it to the mash tunn or the boil?
Can anyone suggest a hop to go with it as well? I was thinking along the lines of a 100% pale malt brew with goldings and fuggles but perhaps I could be pursuaded with some cascades as I undertand they give a citrus finish.
Any ideas???? Anyone tried a similar brew?

Crush it with a pestle and toss it in the boil.
There's a few hoegaarden recipes in the Recipe section that have used it. Mysterio and adm spring to mind

Re: Corainder in a brew
I have used it in a strong IPA and some wheat beers. It was a bit overpowering.
Crush the seeds. Fresher seeds are better. Add at final 15mins of boil.
Can't remeber exactly how much i used, it is written down somewhere.... maybe 15g - 20g for 23L.
I don't think i will use them again Ihavent mastered there use... yet.

Hop Back's website doesn't confirm as much, but I'm pretty sure that the bottle of Crop Circle I recently considered buying, mentioned that it included coriander. I suspect that it may have also defined the hops.
