Hi all,
I am going to attempt a Munich Helles tomorrow and need some help with the mash schedule and acid additions.
My recipe consists of
90% Pilsner Malt- 3 EBC
5% Vienna Malt- 4 EBC
3% Melanoidin Malt (Light)- 50 EBC
2% Acid Malt- 6 EBC
I'm using 4 stage RO water which has 0 TDS and 6.7ph. I shall add Calcium Chloride and Gypsum to get the correct water profile. The batch size is 19L and my equipment is the 30L Brew Monk which is similar to the Grain Father.
My questions are:
What mash schedule is best suited to the grain bill i have?
Will the 2% acid malt be enough to get the mash down to 5.3?
I have only brewed ales to date so this is my first Lager.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
