Notes: Kvas is an ancient refreshing bubbly drink, usually classified as "non-alcoholic".

It fits very well to any uncomfortably hot working environment - in the field, in the bakery, in the metallurgical factory.

Yeast:
Any yeast will fit. I used US-05 just because I have some leftovers. If no yeast is available - fresh bio grape will do the job. Grapes have some yeast on the skin. If no grape is available, 200g of yeast-free rye bread will be needed. In this case, natural rye yeast will come to play, it's like "lactobacillae", but acts slower, thus, more controllable.

Dosage:
Children - zero, however, some parents do increase dosage to up to 1L/day, if children are really helping out in the field or in the garden.
Adults - 10L/day. Some bakeries provide up to 5L/day, and set mandatory consumption to 1L/day.

Variations:
It's allowed to spoil the wort with any "lactobacillale". It will become even tastier, however, the better taste will last only 1-2 days, then you'll drain the vinegar to the sink. Children like that "acidy" type of kvas better than pure alcoholic one.

If you don't have access to Chocolate Rye malt, feel free to pick any rye malt, and bake it at 130C for 20-40 minutes. If no malt is available - please, use the rye flour.

Carbonization:
Carbonization is natural. That's why there is 100g sugar per 10L of drink. Feel free to replace it with 120g Honey, and you'll get "Honey Kvas".

Simplifications:
In some countries, Rye/Barley extract is available for the sale.

Bottling:
Please, avoid bottling. I ferment it in the bucket, and then we drink it straight from there. I pitch at 25C, and when primary fermentation is over, I add the sugar and put the bucket in the fridge. Next day the drink is cooled down to 10C and has some bubbles. That's sufficient.

“Premiant is our take on a traditional Czech pilsner,” says Alma Mader brewer and cofounder Nick Mader. “We rely on two varieties of Bohemian pilsner malt that help to lay a bready malt foundation, which balances the spicy and snappy Saaz bitterness. Floral and dried-lemon aromas, effortlessly crisp, and a perfect pairing with absolutely anything.”

ALL-GRAIN

Batch size: 5 gallons (19 liters)
Brewhouse efficiency: 72%
OG: 1.046
FG: 1.008
IBUs: 35
ABV: 5%

MALT/GRAIN BILL
5.55 lb (2.5 kg) Weyermann Bohemian Pilsner
2.65 lb (1.2 kg) Weyermann Floor-Malted Bohemian Pilsner
5.6 oz (159 g) Weyermann Acidulated (see below)
4.2 oz (119 g) Weyermann Carafoam

HOPS SCHEDULE
0.3 oz (9 g) Hallertauer Magnum at 75 minutes [15 IBUs]
0.7 oz (20 g) Saaz at 15 minutes [5 IBUs]
2.7 oz (77 g) Saaz at whirlpool [15 IBUs]

YEAST
White Labs WLP800 Pilsner Lager or other Czech lager strain

DIRECTIONS
Mill the grains and mash at 149°F (65°C) for 30 minutes. Aim for a mash pH of 5.2–5.25, adjusting acidulated malt as necessary. Use an iodine test to ensure starch conversion (see “On the Road to Conversion,” beerandbrewing .com). Vorlauf until your runnings are clear, then run off into the kettle. Sparge at 166°F (74°C) and top up as necessary to get 6 gallons (23 l) of wort—or more, depending on your evaporation rate. Boil for 75 minutes, adding hops according to the schedule. After the boil, do a whirlpool step: Stir for 5 minutes to create a vortex, add hops, and allow 20 minutes to settle. Chill to about 47°F (8°C), aerate thoroughly, and add plenty of healthy yeast. Ferment at 50°F (10°C), allowing the temperature to rise on Day 5 or 6 for a diacetyl rest. Once fermentation is complete and the beer is clear of diacetyl, crash to 32°F (0°C). Drop the yeast or rack into secondary and lager for at least 3 weeks. Filter and/or fine as desired before packaging.

Notes: if your like me and love hops just add an ounce of Cascade to your keg, let it slow carbonate for a 3 or 4 days then take it out and enjoy a great beer!

Adjust your caramel 60L and shoot for an SRM of 8.

Notes: This started out as an IPA but I don't think the hop profile was enough to call it that. What it turned out to be was a pretty darn good Pale Ale so I changed the category I listed it in. My OG was 1.058 little low from listing final was 1.011 ended at around 6 ABV. I'll be making this again.
