Notes

This is an experimental version of a Pilsner recipe. This beer is RAW! Honey is dissolved in water. Grains are mashed in at 148 for 1 hour. Hops are boiled in a separate pot and then mixed into the mash. Liquor is transferred into the fermenter skipping the boil.

Efficiency was off the chart. Refractometer read 1.053, but Tilt gave 1.064 OG. After 1 week fermenting at 60 F, and 1 week at 55, beer is now lagering at 45 with FG 0.983 according to Tilt.

I will probably dilute the beer with 10 gallons of water carbonated in kegs in order to bring down the ABV to target.
