Notes: Keep mash pH at 5.6 and sparge water pH at 6.0.

Finalize water profile with Gypsum, Calcium Chloride, and Chalk, split between mash and boil, to take city water to desired water profile (Ca: 66; Mg: 30; Na: 48; S04: 56; Cl: 72; HCO3: 112).

Mash at 152° F for 90 minutes. Raise mash to 168° F and sparge out.

Fermentation:
Start cool at about 50°F, and hold there for the first forty-eight hours. For every day thereafter, increase your temperature by 1°F for ten days. After it’s been in the fermentor for twelve days, it should be at a steady 60°F. Activity in the airlock should be low (but not absent). Raise to 65'F for diacetyl cleanup for 3 days. After fermentation is complete (estimate 3 weeks) cold-crash to begin the clearing process.

Bottle conditioning:
Raise the temperature after bottling back to room temperature to encourage appropriate bottle fermentation, then place it in a dark, cold corner for at least six weeks.

Carb at 2.4 vols and let sit for another 4+ weeks to lager.

A lager fermentation consists of these 3 phases:

primary fermentation : main fermentation of the fermentable extract. The bulk of the CO2 and alkohol are created here. Chill the beer to at/below pitching temperature, 9–10°C.
Pitch the yeast and wait 24–48 hours for fermentation to begin. Maintain the temperature for two weeks.

maturation : the yeast is allowed to clean up some of its byproducts like diacetyl (butterscotch flavor) and acetaldehyde (green apple flavor). After active fermentation slows, raise the temperature over several days to 18°C. Allow the beer to sit there for two or three days to clean up the diacetyl.

cold stabilization (lagering) : the low temperature causes haze forming proteins and polyphenols come out of solution and drop out of suspension. There is also a mellowing of flavors and some formation of esters happening. The latter becomes only significant after more than 12 weeks. Lower the temperature to 1°C to 2°C by reducing temp. 1°C per day.

Notes: FATHEADS SON OF BREWZILLA 2017 (Bronze - Altbiers & Weissbiers):
35.5/50
AROMA (9/12): Chocolate, plum, and vanilla notes. Some light banana notes. Very complex and inviting. No hops, diacetyl, DMS or acetaldehyde; Moderate plum, raisin, and fig aromas from the malt combined with low banana & clove yeast aroma to create a complex & inviting aroma. Hop aroma is absent. No off aromas noted.

APPEARANCE (2.5/3): Dark brown with medium tan head. Creamy with great retention, moderate haze; This beer pours a deep copper, nearly mahogany with a huge mousse light tan head which lasts forever. Very hazy which is ok for the style

FLAVOR (13.5/20): Nice (maybe too high?) chocolatey up front. Moderate wheat bread. Low but balanced banana/clove. More vanilla than clove. Quite complex. Nice dry clean finish; Banana & clove are moderate, a bit more prominent than in the aroma. Dark fruit & deep tastiness from malts are medium-high, but carry a solvent alcohol note with them. Hop flavor is absent and bitterness is low, yielding a sweet impression in the finish which is slightly dry. Balance is firmly malty

MOUTHFEEL (3.5/5): Heavy body with foamy carbonation. Moderate warming. Noticeable but low alcohol bite. Finishes dry; Body is medium with high carbonation. Creaminess is very slight - could be more. Warmth is low despite obvious alcohol content. No astringency

OVERALL IMPRESSION (7/10): Excellent dark version of style. A bit heavy on chocolate. Stronger yeast flavors would increase the score (banana & clove). Alcohol could be a little better hidden. Try fermenting a little lower. Overall very complex and enjoyable; Very nice beer. Rich & malty with an ester profile that gives it a wonderful complexity. There's a definite solventy note with flavor though, which is obviously from yeast stress. Use a starter, oxygenate, and pitch at least 0.75 million cells/*P/ml wort for a beer this big

MY THOUGHTS: Pitch 1 mil/*P/ml wort at 62*, don't seal lid. Let rise to 68 after a day, and let finish at 72* after 3 days. Eliminate brown malt and increase Chocolate wheat to .75 lb
