Notes

Note:
This is a 3 Stage Infusion Mash.The German name is Hochkurz meaning high temp low time I added a protein rest for the special malt. The Pilsner malt is my base malt it will make a nice light crisp color and taste. The Carapils will add to the head retention of the beer and I added a .5 kg Munich light to offset the Hop notes with a nice light malty taste and a little darker EBC.
To achieve Mash Temps add boiling Water
All Mash times are in Minutes.I have extended the beta sacrification rest to 40 min for a more crisp beer less sweeter beer.
I will use 1 Standard vile of WLP830 Yeast and doing a yeast starter 2 days prior to brew day fermenting between 11 and 12 celcius. The hops will add a nice citrus fruit and Melon smell. I'm going to dry hop in secondary for a better melon citrus aroma.I am boiling for 90 minutes to help with protein break down and head retention. I will be carbonating with DME to keep to Reinheitsgebot. I will be starting with 6 gallons calculating for a 1 gallon boil off. Leaving me with 5 gallons or 20 liters for fermentation.The water profile I have chosen is a light lager Pilsner works well with a German Helles.
