I considered kumquats, but they&#8217;re not in season. Other options I considered were\u00a0the typical\u00a0Seville oranges and coriander, or alternatively\u00a0tangelo,\u00a0camomile, heather, lemon, cilantro, and lemon &amp; lime zest. I settled on tamarind for no particular reason.<\/p>\n<p>I added the first packaged batch of 150g of dried sweet Thai tamarind to the primary after about a week of fermentation\u00a0for a duration of about a week. Koren then added the 2nd batch of whole tamarind (which she seeded)\u00a0during the 3rd or 4th week.<\/p>\n<p>So how&#8217;s it taste? Dirty, earthy. I keep trying to think of\u00a0an analog for the taste of tamarind, but come up with nothing. It&#8217;s unique unto itself. In a beer, not wholly pleasant. One-dimensional and kind of muddy.<\/p>\n<p>To zing it up a little, I added the zest of 1 lemon (about 0.4 oz) and about 0.1 oz ground coriander.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ancientartpodcast.org\/brew\/tamarind-hefeweizen\/lemon-and-coriander\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-925\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"925\" data-permalink=\"http:\/\/www.ancientartpodcast.org\/brew\/tamarind-hefeweizen\/lemon-and-coriander\/\" data-orig-file=\"http:\/\/www.ancientartpodcast.org\/brew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Lemon-and-coriander.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1280,960\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;2.2&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;iPhone 5s&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;1500321883&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;4.15&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;250&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0.033333333333333&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;1&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Lemon and coriander\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"http:\/\/www.ancientartpodcast.org\/brew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Lemon-and-coriander-300x225.jpg\" data-large-file=\"http:\/\/www.ancientartpodcast.org\/brew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Lemon-and-coriander-1024x768.jpg\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-925 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ancientartpodcast.org\/brew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Lemon-and-coriander.jpg\" alt=\"Lemon and coriander\" width=\"1280\" height=\"960\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.ancientartpodcast.org\/brew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Lemon-and-coriander.jpg 1280w, http:\/\/www.ancientartpodcast.org\/brew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Lemon-and-coriander-300x225.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.ancientartpodcast.org\/brew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Lemon-and-coriander-768x576.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.ancientartpodcast.org\/brew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Lemon-and-coriander-1024x768.jpg 1024w, http:\/\/www.ancientartpodcast.org\/brew\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Lemon-and-coriander-400x300.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>After just 24 hours, the aroma and taste are heavenly!
