The following beer recipe is featured in the May/June 2017 issue of Zymurgy magazine. Access this issue along with the archives with Zymurgy Online!
Amahl Turczyn adds a caramel-twist to a summertime favorite. Expect a bit of sweetness and color from the specialty malts, while the character of the beer stays true to the refreshing quality of Mexican lager.
Ingredients:
MALTS
6 lb (2.72 kg) Vienna malt
2 lb (0.9 kg) Pilsner malt
1 lb (0.45 kg) flaked maize
1 lb (0.45 kg) 20° L Munich malt
0.5 lb (227 g) 120° L crystal malt
2 oz (57 g) Weyermann Carafa® II malt
HOPS
2 oz (57 g) Tettnang, 4.5% a.a. @ 60 min (28 IBU)
YEAST
Mexican lager yeast (2 L starter)
WATER
04. g/gal (0.3 g/L) calcium chloride added to reverse osmosis water
Specifications:
Yield: 5.5 US gallons (20.8 L)
Original Gravity: 1.052 (12.8° P)
Final Gravity: 1.012 (3° P)
ABV: 5.20%
IBU: 28
SRM: 13
Directions:
Mash malts at 148° F (65°C) and allow to rest one hour. Apply heat or boiling water to increase temperature to 168° F (76° C) over 20 minutes. Hold at 168° F (76°C) for another 10 minutes to mash out. Sparge at 168° F (76° C). Boil 90 minutes. Chill to 50° F (10° C) and oxygenate. Pitch a strong starter of yeast. Ferment at 50-55° F (10-13° C) until terminal gravity is reached. Raise to 60° F (16°C) and hold two days for a diacetyl rest. Crash to 35° F (2° C) and lager beer at 35-40° F (2-4° C) for at least a month. |
