Procedure:
-
Mash in with 3.5 gallons of water (1.25qts/lb)
-
Target Rest: 152?F for 60 minutes
-
Vorlaugh until runnings appear mostly clear and free of debris
-
Sparge with apx. 4.75 gallons of water at 167?F
-
Collect 1 gallon of the first runnings from the mash tun, halt the sparge, and boil vigorously for 10 minutes. Boiling the dense first runnings simulates to some extent a decoction mash, and develops some rich malt flavors.
-
Resume the sparge and collect 7.0 gallons of wort in the kettle and bring to a boil.
-
Total boil length is 90 minutes. Follow schedule of kettle additions above
-
Chill to 60?F – 68?F for Ale version and 50?F – 60?F for Lager & pitch yeast
-
Ferment with Wyeast German Ale between 55?F-66?F or Munich Lager between 48?F-55?F. Perform a diacetyl rest before racking and conditioning. After fermentation is complete, condition the beer by racking to secondary and storing cool for an additional 3-6 weeks at apx. (50?F for ale 35?F for Lager).
NOTE: Yeast is not included with this kit. Please choose a yeast from the suggestions below or any other yeast of your liking. Hops or yeast may change based off current inventory. Any changes will be noted.
