Notes

Yeast - Slurry from Schramerisch Pils.
Acidulated malt is to try end at a beer ph of 4.25 - 4.3 per brewers notes from KC Bier Pils in Kansas City to liven up the pale pils.

First time use of the Blichmann boil kettle as a mash tun with the false bottom. This is why there is so much mash water because 15 litres is below the false bottom.

Fermentation program.

  1. Chill to 9C before pitching
  2. Ferment at 10C for 2 weeks
  3. Let temp rise to 16C for 3 days diacetyl rest
    4, Condition for 5 weeks at 1C.
