Notes
Basic Helles recipe with a single decoction mash.
60C mash start (no protein rest), wait 5-10 mins, pull first thick decoction, raise decoction portion to 67C and hold for 10-15 mins, boil for 10-15 mins, add back to main mash and infuse/decoct to get to 70C. Hold at 70C for 15 mins, raise to mashout at 75C, hold for 15 mins and sparge.
OR just single infusion at 66C / 151F.
Use Augustiner yeast - Imperial Harvest, WLP860 Munich Helles, WY2352-PC Munich II, etc, S-189 or W34/70 if using dry yeast.
Ferment Sub 15C and raise for diacetyl rest, lower temp for lagering by 2C a day and lager for at least 2 weeks at 0-4C.This Recipe Has Not Been Rated
