Notes: I measured the FG of a Bud can - 1.005. It's basically carbonated water with a hint of flavor + alcohol.
If this is accurate it means that the OG is around 1.043 with an Attenuation of around 88%. This makes sense considering major brewers objective is to produce the maximum amount of beer at the lowest cost possible.

UPDATED - 2/9/21 - Coming soon

BREWED - 7/2/21

NOTE- American Lager Yeast unavailable, substituted Pilsen Lager Yeast.

Achieved the OG I was looking for but not the volume. I was shooting for 6.5 gal but only got 6, therefore, only 68% efficiency.

I rushed this one a bit. Cut the dough-in to only 10 minutes, and only performed one sparge. This could be the reason for the inefficiency.

Primary @ 50 degrees for 10 days, then a few days @ room temperature.

UPDATE - 7/17/21 - Racked into glass, SG - 1.009, ABV 5.1%, right where we wanted it. Will lager for 6-8 weeks @ 35-37 degrees.

UPDATE - 8/26 - kegged after about 10 days of dry hopping

Will make about 55 beers.

Price per 12 oz. serving - $0.49

ACTUAL RESULTS:

Total water - about 9.5 gallons, could have used 10
Pre-boil volume: 7.25 gals
Ending kettle volume: 6 gallons - looking for 6.5

Efficiency: 73%

Notes: Tapp av ca. fire liter når meskingen er ferdig, før skylling. Kok dette i en egen kjele til det er omtrent en liter igjen. Dette tilsettes vørteren når den koker.

La det gjære i 4 uker på så lav temperatur som mulig. Hell så over til sekundær og tilsett 50 gr. eikechips. Chipsene kokes i vann i 10 minutter før de tilsettes sekundær. For en kraftigere vaniljesmak kan det tilsettes ca. 30 gr. vaniljeekstrakt eller en vaniljestang i vannet som chipsene kokes i.

Pre-boil volum skal være 23 l.

Notes: OG was only 1.080, but finished at a very respectable 1.008! 13 days primary and another 7 in secondary. Once it conditions, should be damn tasty!

Notes: Made the usual starter w/ 4500ml filtered water and 1# DME. Boiled 15 min and cooled. Pitched, left for 2 days or so then cold-crashed.

Mashed in a little lower than we wanted and it settled around 148 - after 15 minutes or so we recirculated and stirred - mash was kind of stuck - dealt with that - got the temp up to 151 eventually and left it for the duration.

Mashed out as best we could - still very sticky. Started sparge - first runnings were 1.087 or so. Dropped like a stone and ended at 1.010. Ran out of liquid - did not collect 13g. Gravity was 1.057 so we added a g. of water. Preboil gravity at 50. Boiled 90 minutes as that is the traditional way. Post boil at 55 so added another g. of water. Original gravity of 1.051 w/ about 11.5g. in the fermenter. Lots of activity apparent by the next morning.

This beer went to the 2015 Homebrew Festival in San Diego and apparently was very popular - people came by the booth and said they heard that Claude was pouring a good Kolsch! To me, it's a tad heavy on that Kolsch malt - I think we need to back off a little. Got a little too much of the biscuity flavor going on. Still excellent and refreshing! Still a bit too light in color too!

Also sent 3 bottles to the Oregon State fair and got some interesting comments back. They seemed to think it had some yeast issues...
