Notes

Australian Pilsner tends to have a lower IBU and ABV than Czech Pilsners. This has more mouthfeel than standard Aussie Largers with nice lacing. Sugar was used to increase the ABV which is standard in many commercial Aussie Lagers.

You can substitute for another yeast strain however using the 34/70 allowed me to ferment at slightly higher temps (12 degrees for 4 days then ramp to 15 over a week) resulting in grain to glass time of approx. 2 weeks when forced carbonating in kegs.
