I have been toying with the idea of something German for my next batch. Josh had discussed his version of a Helles during one of the Zoom meetings. I liked the idea, but wanted to maybe go with a few more base malts.
I came across a version of Dortmunder Export online. When I ran the numbers for BIAB, I came up with about 75.5& Pils (Probably going Weyermann), 16.3% Vienna, and 8.2% Munich. Going to use a heavy pitch of 34/70 and Hallertauer Mittelfrueh (1oz at 60, 1 at 30, 1 at 10, but that might change based on Alphas). I am shooting for the 30IBU neighborhood and using Publix Spring Water with no modification. Going single infusion BIAB. Mashing either 150 or 152. I haven't made up my mind yet. I am trying for something mid to upper 5's for alcohol.
I would like to hear what y'all think and maybe some changes that might be beneficial. It sounds like something I would enjoy, and I really did want to play around with some Vienna again. I might bump up the Vienna just a tiny bit.
