Notes

Das Projekt is to brew multiple small batches using different base grains - the only thing that will change from batch to batch is the base grain. Each batch will list the base malt in the notes. For each batch, O2, 5 min, 1/32 LPM. Pitch and ferment at 12 degrees C. Extended boil is to develop color.
0. Avangard Pilsner: Used too much water and over-acidified the sparge. Water required going forward: 4.5 gallons. I'l make 5 gallons of brewing liquor but only use what I need. Run 1 was not usable as an experimental run - too much water, extended boil, hop utilization and color but I'll complete it. Oh yes, I forgot to get yeast so I won't pitch it until tomorrow (4/24). Not counting this as a project brew.

  1. Floor-malted Bohemian Pilsner.
  2. Golden Promise: Slightly darker malt resulted in a much lower pH. Adding some bicarbonate and learned to recalculate for each different malt.
