Notes

Batch # 2

Using Omega American Lager OYL-103 Yeast

  • Temp Range: 48 - 58 deg F
    Mash Guidelines:
    Strick temp +12 deg F = 164 deg F

    Lager Notes:
    Step 1) 53 deg F for 3 wks
    Step 2) 70 deg F for 4 days
    Step 3) 34 deg F for 4 wks

    Ended up just a tad sweeter than the original.
    Next brew I will drop the mash temp to 150 deg F. May increase the ABV a bit???
