Notes

Spring water from Publix
Carafa and CaraMunich added at vorlouf

Recipe from September/October 2016 issue of Zymurgy. Gold medal winner from Dark Lager category. However, since I don't have the capacity to lager, I am using Kolsch yeast and fermenting on the low end of the range.

Actual OG 10.045
