For water target roughly 100 ppm Calcium, 50 ppm of Chloride and 100 ppm of Sulfite. Just before mash out draw a thin decoction and boil the hops in it for 15 minutes, add it to the mash while raising the temperature to mash out. After lautering do not boil the wort, just heat the wort to 98°C to pasteurize then cool. Pre-acidify the wort to a pH of 4.5 for foam stability. Ferment at room temperature (18-20°C) for roughly 3 months. Carbonate to 7-9 g/l CO2 (3.5-4.5 volumes), use heavy bottles.

Hop in mash or hop in decoction?

"1.5kg hops per 100kg malt".
aka 0.015kg hops per 1kg malt.
That would be 1.979 oz for 8.25 lb alt.
