any practical experience out there comparing batches using unmalted wheat to malted wheat in wits? pros/cons/indifference? various internet sources conflict each other (OMG, the internet conflicts itself. WHAT will we do?), I'd really like to hear from those that have tried it both ways...

Refreshing this thread for Danno. I'd like to hear any answers to this too. If anyone does know the answer, please include any comparisons with both torrified & flaked wheat if you can.

So far, I've only used a bit (a lb or less per batch) of flaked wheat for enhancing foam/mouthfeel. Even then, I've only used it a few times. I want to expand to more styles, and wit is high on the list.

I'm brewing this the 27th. My wit is going to be 44% Durst Pilsner, 22% Wheat Malt, 22% unmalted wheat, and 11% flaked oats. I'll let you know how it turns out...
