Notes
Mash in at 144°F and hold for 20 minutes; raise the temperature to 149°F and hold for 20 minutes; raise the temperature to 162°F and hold for 20 minutes; remove one-third of the mash and boil it for 15 minutes and return the boiled portion to th main mash, which should bring the temperature to about 171°F. Vorlauf until runnings are clear, then run off into the kettle while sparging the grains and top off as nessary to obtain 6.8 gallons of wort or more depending on your boiloff rate. Boil for 90 minutes, following the hops schedule. Chill to 46°F.
Fermentation Plan from Craft Beer and Brewing April-May 2020, Pg 46.
Chill wort to 48°F, aerate, and pitch yeast. Ferment at 50°F. When gravity has dropped to about 1.018 SG, increase temperature to 61°F. When beer has feremented completely, decrease the temperature by about 3°F per day until you reach 35°F. Hold there for 3-5 weeks, then decrease the temperature to 32°F and lager for at least 3 weeks (I'm lagering in the keg).This Recipe Has Not Been Rated
