Notes

This recipe and brewing process is aimed at achieving a crisp lager-like festbier with a balanced malt character that isn't too malt forward with light toast and bread notes and clean (or absent) fermentation character. All while fermenting with Kveik yeast!

BIAB single infusion no-sparge mash at 152°F for 60 minutes. Mash out rest at 170° for 10 minutes. Boil for 60 minutes following hop schedule and adding yeast nutrient (with DAP) and whirlfloc tab with 15 minutes remaining. Chill to 60°F and pitch 2L starter of Lutra and Clarity Ferm. Free rise to ~68°F. Let beer condition in primary for 1 week at room temp after terminal gravity is reached. Cold condition after packaging for minimum of 3-4 weeks before consuming.

Note: I am in the process of simplifying my brewing process by reducing water wasted during chilling, skipping the cold crash step, and avoiding going further than 10°F below room temp during fermentation.
