Notes: Double Decoction:

*Note: Pilsner Urquell uses a triple decoction method with an initial acid rest, but I use well enough modified malts and correct for pH already so the first of three decoctions is unnecessary. The decoction measurements below are ones I developed for an electric system and err on the side of caution, so they are the lower amounts needed to potentially reach the next temperature step and direct heat can be applied to compensate.*

Perform a protein rest at 125F for 15min, then pull off slightly less than 1/3 (1.16gal/4.4L) of the thickest mash and place it in a separate pot. Bring the pot slowly up to 158F and hold for 15min, then slowly bring it up to a boil and proceed to boil for 10min. Stir often so the grains do not burn, but try to allow some 'browning' to help darken the colour and enhance the flavour/aroma profiles. Add the decoction back to the 125F mash, little by little, aiming for a beta rest temperature of 148F. Hold this temperature for 30min while adding back any leftover decoction (if any) as it cools. After this has finished, pull off roughly 1/6 (0.7gal/2.6L) of the thickest mash a second time and place it in the separate pot. Slowly bring the pot up to a boil and continue to boil for 10min. Add the second decoction back to the mash, little by little, aiming for an alpha rest temperature of 158F. Hold this temperature for 30min while adding back any leftover decoction (if any) as it cools. Once this rest has finished, raise the temperature up to a mash out rest of 167F and hold for 10min. After the decoctions and mash out are finished proceed to sparge/lauter as usual.

No Decoction:

Instead of the labour intensive double decoction mash schedule you could:

- Substitute some of the pilsner malt for vienna and/or munich to add colour and depth.
- Include some melanoidin malt for a slight decoction 'feel'.
- Add some carapils malt (or your preferred alternative) for improved head retention.
- After which, just carry out a temperature/infusion mash schedule based on your preferences.

**This beer won a national silver medal at the Saskatoon Headhunters Competition (2017) and has consistently scored 40's at other national competitions.

couldn't cool it down to 18, so fermentation started 24C and rose up to 26, then dropped after 2 days to 24 again.

Notes: your probably going to need a filter or cold crash after dry hopping or both, but I choose to condition in a keg for 7 days to settle everything to the bottom then transfer to serving keg and slow carb. this will seem very strong at first but will come together after 15 days of aging

this does not taste like LIL Helper at all but it is very good, I might rename it lol

Notes: Treat water with the MSB before brewing to remove chlorine/chloramine. 0.5g per 25L

Make a 5L yeast starter a few days in advance and cold crash before brew day

Decoction mash is optional

For the decoction mash remove a large pan (approx 4kg) of grain and being to the boil then return during the heating cycle between steps

Pitch the yeast at 8-9C and ferment at 9-10C for 10-14 days or until the fermentation slows to almost nothing

Make sure you do a diacetyl rest for 3-4 days at 18c to clean up the flavours

Cool down to 10 to add gelatine

Cold crash a 0C for 7-10 days then transfer to keg

Leave it for at least 2 weeks to carbonate and smooth out before drinking.

Brewed with wyeast 2308 or White labs WLP860. Make sure you do a starter and give it a real boost of yeast to get a quick and clean fermentation.

Blind taste tests 3 out of 4 preferred this to real Camden hells and only 1 picked out the original as their preferred beer. You can tell a slight difference but it’s marginal and most people actually prefer this beer I’ve just tweeked the hops a little over time to get it even nicer.

Give it a try

Notes: I think I'll add cooked cherries to 2ndary then rack over them from primary.

For the roasted grains, I used 3 times the recipe weight above, and cold-steeped in water for 24 hrs using 1 gallon per 3 lbs of grain (just used 2 gal for this batch)

When doing this and on brew day go to the mash calc page and adjust the weight of the grain in the mash down to roasted grains taken out to get water volumes

--
Learned nibs primarily impart nose so doing 2oz cocoa powder in the boil at 15 min and 2 oz nibs. 2-4 nibs in the 2ndary with the cherries

Low mash temp which perplexes me since the numbers were on. Doing a 1.5G decoction 30 minutes in to the mash
