Target Water Profile
Munich (decarbonated)
Ca+2 Mg+2 Na+ Cl- SO4-2 HCO3-
40 20 4 75 52 29
Use 6.75 gallons RO water and fill to 9 gallons with Serano water. Add 4.4g (1 tsp) CaCl2 and 1.65 ml phosphoric acid. This gets close to Munich decarbonated profile, but a little low on sulfates. Results in very malty beer.

Notes

This is a high gravity doppelbock, with very low hopping rate appropriate for style. Made only with German Munich, German Pilsener and CaraMunich III 60L).

Need huge starter for this. Use 4L starter at 1.054 OG. After setting up starter, let ferment for at least 48h, then cold crash and decant off spent wort. Pitch only the yeast slurry from this.

Mash: 20 min at 125F (protein rest), 60 min at 153F (saccharification), 10 min at 168F (mash out).

Boil: 90 min, with Hallertau added at 30 and 60 minutes.
