DIRECTIONS
Mill the grains and mash at 146°F (63°C) for 60 minutes. Recirculate until your runnings are clear, then run off into the kettle. Sparge and top up as necessary to get about 6 gallons (23 liters) of wort, depending on your evaporation rate. Boil for 90 minutes, adding hops and yeast nutrient according to the schedule. After the boil, conduct a whirlpool step: Add whirlpool hops at 210°F (99°C), stir for 5 minutes to create a vortex, then allow 20 minutes to steep. Then chill wort to about 52°F (11°C), aerate thoroughly, and pitch plenty of healthy yeast. Ferment at 55°F (13°C) until the gravity reaches 1.016, then raise to 60°F (16°C) for diacetyl rest—total fermentation time should be about 2 weeks. Rack to secondary, crash to 35°F (2°C), and lager for 3 weeks. Package and carbonate to about 2.7 volumes of CO2.
BREWER’S NOTES
We started decocting Postcard about two years ago. The single-infusion method makes excellent beer, but we find that these steps offer a more complex malt profile and a more lasting impression.
Decoction Option: Mill the grains and mash at 131°F (55°C) for 20 minutes, then raise to 146°F (63°C) for 30 minutes, then to 158°F (70°C) for 10 minutes. Move up to one-third the mash volume to another kettle, bring it to a boil, and then mix it with the main mash. Mash out should be around 168°F (76°C). Then follow other directions as above.
Fermentation: This is another area where you can experiment. For example, we love the clean profile that 47°F (8°C) gives you, and there’s no need to adjust for a diacetyl rest that cold. We ferment most of our lagers that way, but for Postcard, we prefer the subtle fruity notes that the warmer fermentation gives us in conjunction with the hops.
Water profile: We prefer extremely soft water with minimal mineral content. This way the malt and hops shine in harmonious balance and aren’t fighting against any hardness on the palate.
Grist: If you can’t get Barke, use their base pilsner or experiment with your favorite imported variety. Another fun substitution could be malted corn, or try a cereal mash instead of using flaked. Enjoy! |

| Notes: Heat 21.5 qt. (20.3 L) water to 104°F (40°C) and mash in the 13.8 lb. (6.3 kg) grist. This should lower the temperature to about 100°F (38°C). Let the mash rest for 30 minutes. Take about one-third of the mash as the first decoction. Use Dickmaische, which is the part with grist that settles at the bottom of the mash tun, heat it to 151°F (66°C), and rest for 20 minutes. After the rest, heat the decoction further to 162°F (72°C) for a 15-minute rest before you bring the decoction to a boil. Don’t forget to stir while heating. After a 15-minute boil, reunite the decoction with the remaining mash. Again, don’t forget to stir to avoid local overheating and enzyme destruction. The mash should now have a temperature of around 151°F (66°C). Rest for 10 minutes. Again, remove one-third of the mash from the mash tun. This time use Dünnmaische, the part with less grist, which will collect in the upper portion of the mash tun. Heat the decoction to 162°F (72°C) while stirring. Rest for 10 minutes before you bring the decoction to a boil. Boil for 15 minutes and reunite the mash in the mash tun while stirring. The mash should now reach around 162°F (72°C). Rest for 15 minutes and check saccharification with an iodine test. Heat the mash to 172°F (78°C) and hold a mash-out rest for about 10 minutes before you start lautering. Sparge with 172°F (78°C) water until the wort is diluted to a gravity of around 1.057 (14°P) in the kettle. Heat up for a 90-minute boil. Add 0.7 oz. (20 g) Magnum 30 minutes after the wort starts to boil. Add 0.4 oz. (10 g) Hallertauer Mittelfrüh 75 minutes into the boil. Add the last 0.7 oz. (20 g) Hallertauer Mittelfrüh 5 minutes before you finish the 90-minutes boil. Your wort should now have a gravity of 1.068 (16.5°P). Cool wort to about 48°F (9°C) and pitch the yeast. Let the temperature rise to about 50°F (10°C) and wait until the beer reaches a gravity of about 1.018 (4.5°P), before you transfer it to a secondary fermenter. Let the beer ferment under a top pressure of 16 psi (1.1 bar) for another 2 weeks before you cool it to about 32°F (0°C). Allow the beer to mature for at least another 5 weeks. If you bottle condition your brew, pitch at 48°F (9°C) and let the temperature rise to 50°F (10°C). Wait until the gravity doesn’t change for at least 3 consecutive days before you transfer the beer to your filling bucket. Add sugar for a carbonation of 4.5 g/L (if you ferment at 50°F/10°C, this should be 4.5 g sugar per liter). |
