Notes: Based on Mount Brewing's NZ Pilsner -

OG 1.051
FG 1.012
45 IBU

Malt bill
45% German pilsner
45% Pilsner or lager light
7 to 10% wheat malt

Mash
2 1/2 to 1 ratio of sulfur to calcium chloride similar to IPA
Single infusion for 50 minutes at 67 degrees Celcius

Hops
FWH Pacific Jade
10 minute boil 3g/L Motueka, Riwaka and Nelson Sauvin
83° c whirlpool for 10 minutes 5/6 g/L Motueka, Riwaka and Nelson Sauvin and let stand for another 10 minutes

6/7 g/L Dry hopping Motueka, Riwaka and Nelson Sauvin

Dry Hopping and whirlpool hop ratios are 60% Motueka 20% Riwaka and 20% Nelson Sauvin

Motueka is the hero hop. The other 2 are supporting hops.

Fermentation
Lager Yeast
Transfer to fermenter at 22C
Cool to 17C and pitch yeast
Allow yeast to grow for 24 hours
Then Cool to 12C to encourage slow fermentation and reduce phenols
After a further 24 hours raise temp back to 17C and leave to ferment until you reach terminal gravity of 1.012

Ensure terminal gravity is stable for 2 further days

Check PH – 4.2/4.3 – higher PH means the beer is too malty/soapy – not bright/sharp enough

Then cool to 12C and then start dropping yeast over the next 2 days.

Then add dry hops and bubble with 15PSI CO2 for 10 to 15 minutes

Leave for another 24 hours, then bubble again with CO2

Cold Crash under 20 PSI pressure to 1C

The next day start dumping hops

Then lager for 10 to 12 days at 20 PSI pressure and 1C

Notes: Easily the best beer I've brewed to date. Very NEIPAesque thick creamy mouth feel, cloudy. The Nelson-Sauvin takes the lead with the white grape/chardonay flavours followed by the companion coconut and citrus of the Sabro.

I found flaked buckwheat at bulk barn for cheap so I though it would compliment the base malt, wheat and hybrid Farmhouse yeast (attached flavor & aroma pic)

Flaked Buckwheat:
"Sweet and earthy with notes of wildflower and peanut shell. A great addition for foam retention and mouth-feel to pale ale and farmhouse recipes, reacting well to brettanomyces."

Next time I'll mash with at least another gallon of water as that little amount killed my efficiency.

The first Sauvin-Sabro dryhop didn't do much and when I took it out I noticed a lot the pellets hadn't fully dissolved. I decided to do a second Mosaic dryhop and I'll shake the keg up more often.

Notes: I had a huge rosemary plant in our yard and was inspired. I've tried to sneak up on the right amount of rosemary, as it's a pretty potent flavor. 14 gr (1/2 oz) of rosemary is mild but present. I haven't used more than 21 (3/4 oz).

I've got some aroma/flavor hops, but minimize it to let the rosemary out. This pairs well with fall / winter foods, when we're using more savory herbs in food.

Notes: Rice hulls need to be 3-5% of grain bill when doing more than 50% Wheat malt & flaked 'other' adjuncts. Sugge4sted to make this a "watery" mash as well. Not sure how to make that happen with this large of a grain bill!

Notes: 9.25.16
Lost ~.5 gal to trub and hop matter: 5 gal, 68 F, 4oz sugar for 2.35 vol CO2

Next time whirlpool at flameout and time to 180 to make sure hit time & temp for targeted IBU/isomerization; we chilled beyond whirlpool temp, meant to hit 180

NOTE:
- Measure water in buckets and add 7gal to kettle to confirm level
- 1 Campden tablet in 8 gallons for 10 minutes (potassium version)

Grain 70 / Mash tun 90
Mash water 167 (calc. said 165)
Water in tun before dough-in: 164
Mash start: 152

Stir after 15 and 30 minutes, holding at 151 then 150

Sparged to 5.5 gallons, had to add 1.5 more to sparge to hit X gal; boiled down to x before hopping. Sparge slower to attempt higher efficiency.

HOPTIONS:
PALISADE: apricot, grass and clean floral characteristics.
DENALI: Juicy Fruit, Pineapple, Citrusy, Spicy; Citrus, Tropical Fruit, Stone Fruit/Apple-Pear/Melon/Berry (tie)
PEKKO: Clean, Pleasant, floral, citrus, mint, herbal, mellow, pineapple, thyme, saaz-like cucumber, sage, touch of lemon; as a dry hop in high alcohol beers, Pekko provides an intense tropical fruit character, with mango, pineapple and peach dominating

YEASTIONS...?
US-05 and WYEAST 1968: Jonathan from Baltibrew: split batch and fermented both at about 64F. The 1968 finished a little paler than the other. 1968 (like many British ale yeasts) accentuates malt character.

WYEAST 1272: Expect a soft, clean profile with hints of nut, and a slightly tart finish. Ferment at warmer temperatures to accentuate hop character with an increased fruitiness. Or, ferment cool for a clean, light citrus character. It attenuates well and is reliably flocculent, producing bright beer without filtration.
