MALT/GRAIN BILL:
8 lb (3.6 kg) Pilsner malt
1 lb (454 g) Carapils

HOPS SCHEDULE:
0.75 oz (21 g) Spalt [7.0% AA] at 60 minutes
1 oz (28 g) Tettnang [3.8%] at 15 minutes (more flavor, low aroma)

YEAST:
Wyeast 2565 Kölsch or White Labs WLP029 German Ale/Kölsch

Instructions:

Single-step infusion mash at 147°F (64°C). To avoid oversparging, use a thinner mash (around 3.75 gallons/14 liters of water) and adjust the sparge water accordingly.

Boil for 60 minutes, following the hops schedule.

Chill the wort to 65°F (18°C), pitch the yeast, and place the wort in a 60°F (15°C) fermentation chamber for 5–7 days. Raise the temperature to at 65°F (18°C) for 1 day for a diacetyl rest. Rack the beer and age at 35°F (2°C) for 21–30 days, then keg or bottle.
