Kölsch II
(5 gallons/19 L, all-grain)
OG = 1.049 (12.3 °P)
FG = 1.010 (2.6 °P)
IBU = 28 SRM = 3 ABV = 5.2%
Ingredients
9.5 lb. (4.3 kg) Durst Continental Pilsner malt (2 °L) or similar
0.5 lb. (227 g) Great Western Wheat Malt (3 °L)
5 AAU Hallertau pellet hops (1.25 oz./35 g at 4% alpha acids) (60 min.)
2 AAU Hallertau pellet hops (0.5 oz./14 g at 4% alpha acids) (15 min.)
White Labs WLP029 (German Ale/Kölsch) or Wyeast 2565 (Kölsch) yeast
Step by Step
Mill the grains and dough-in targeting a mash of around 1.5 quarts of water to 1 pound of grain (a liquor-to-grist ratio of about 3:1 by weight) and a temperature of 149 °F (65 °C). Hold the mash at149 °F (65 °C) until enzymatic conversion is complete. Raise the temperature to mash out at 168 °F (76 °C). Sparge slowly with 170 °F (77 °C) water, collecting wort until the pre-boil kettle volume is around 6.5 gallons (24.4 L) and the gravity is 1.038 (9.6 °P). The total wort boil time is 90 minutes, which helps reduce DMS levels in the beer. Add the bittering hops with 60 minutes remaining in the boil. Add the Irish moss or other kettle finings and the late hops with 15 minutes left in the boil.
Chill the wort rapidly to 60 °F (16 °C), let the break material settle, rack to the fermenter and aerate thoroughly. Use 2.5 liquid yeast packages or make a starter with fewer packages. Ferment at 60 °F (16 °C). Allow the beer to lager for at least four weeks before bottling or serving. When finished, carbonate the beer to approximately 2.5 volumes and serve at 50 °F (10 °C).

Notes: Going to split this batch into 2 fermenters, one under pressure and one not under pressure. Aiming to get 8 gallons total, with 4 gallons in two different kegs. Triangle Test when done.
Ferment temp at 72 degrees with the one that is not under pressure.
Milled all grains at .040" or 1mm.

Notes: - add 10g of Mandarin Hops as bittering addition to bring IBU from 14 to 22. IBU target fell short due to decreased hops utilization in a high-gravity brewing.
- For water profile, following J. Palmers suggestions on section 'Brewing your hometown pilsner'. Since ions in Kamloop's water is low, just adding some salts to increase Ca levels to 50ppm.
- Topped up the high gravity wort to 21 liters (5.5 gals) with 3 gallons of Great Value natural spring water with ions: HCO3:250, Ca:72, Cl:2, Mg:18, Na:7, SO4:52. Note that high level of HCO3 is ok since that's how Munich water profile is like as well as Ca at 70s.
- pre boil OG for 13.2 liters (3.5gals) mash measured to be 1.062 at 16C (60F) implying 60% ish conversion efficiency which below expectation. Hence, conversion efficiency might not be constant after all down to 2l/kg wort-to-grist ratio as suggested in J. Palmer's book based on experimental data.
- pre-boil OG of 1.062 for V=13.2 liters corresponds to OG of 1.039 for V=21 liters. |
