Notes

A Swiss man's attempt at a Kölsch beer. Greetings from Basel-Landschaft Switzerland.

Mash rest steps:

50°C mash in, pH adjusted to 5.4 or so
55°C 10 minutes.
62°C 45 minutes.
68°C 20 minutes.
76°C 10 minutes mashout.

Mash out at 168°F (76°C), with pre-boil wort volume of 6.5 gallons (25 L). Bring to a rolling boil for 90 minutes, add hops at specified intervals from end of boil.

Chill wort to 57°F (14°C) and pitch yeast. Allow temp to rise to 68°F (20°C) after 8-9 days. Hold at 68 for 2 days, then lower to lager temp of 44°F . Lager for 1 week at 44°F (4°C). Fine with gelatin (6 grams for 20L) for 1 additional week. Keg and store at 44 degrees under CO2 and drink as it matures.

Note Liberty hops added at first wort...

Water chemistry Oberwil, BL CH
