Notes: If you haven't had a Classic American Pilsener yet, you're missing out! This is the first one I've brewed, and also even tried, but I'm extremely pleased with the way it turned out. One of my best beers yet. If you are asked to give a style example when asked to define just "beer", this is what comes to mind for me. Just a great, balanced, easy-drinking, flavorful beer (not too hoppy, not too malty, not too light, not to heavy, etc... A real "Goldilocks" beer - just right!). Give this one a try.

I've used both WLP833 and WLP838... But a pilsener yeast or any good lager yeast would probably work very well also.

Notes: 2017 version had all kinds of malts in there: c20, c120, brown, chocolate, black barley (pic)
2018 I'm simplifying and just using brown, c120 and black barley
- expect terrible efficiency in the 55% range. There's just so much grain to mash. Maybe try leaving it overnight next time for some extra grav points and better fermentability.
- Last time was 10kg of base malt for 24L. Mashed 1hr and got 1.078 pre-boil.
- added 500g sugar to get us up over 1.085; shooting for around 9% ABV
- Experimenting with adding 1/2 Bourbon-soaked oak spiral (and some of the oaked bourbon) to the keg.
- bumped up the black barley (+100g) as this one (2018) is a bit light once it clears.

Notes: To reduce the oils brought in by the shredded coconut, I covered with paper towels and baked in the oven for about 20 minutes on each side @ 300F and patted down with a paper towel again before putting in the fermenter. Not worried about infection at that point due to the beer already being alcoholic and the paper towel + coconut having been baked at 300F.

Super sessionable, great summer beer.

Notes: Steep the grains into 8.6L of 54.5°C water. Stir, stabilize and hold the temperature at 50°C for 30 minutes. Add 4.3L boiling water. Add heat to bring temperature up to 65.5°C. Hold for 60 minutes.
After conversion, raise temperature to 75°C lauter and sparge with 17L of 77°C water. Collect about 23L of runoff for the wort. Add bittering hops and bring to boil. Boil time is 75 minutes.
Ferment around 19°C for four to six days. Transfer to secondary fermentor and add 14g crushed coriander seed. Age for two weeks. Condition above 15.5°C until carbonated and clearer.

This was meant to be:

But the bag had the other measurements written on it. I'm not sure if they made the mistake with the grain bill or just wrote it down wrong.

Notes: You want a high CaCl for this style. My water goes like this, and should be a safe bet if you havent tested your water (per 5 gallons):
3g CaCl
3g Gypsum
0.5 g Epsom Salts

If the pH is too high, this usually means adding acid malt (~1% of the grist for every intended .1 drop)
If the pH is too low I add chalk (which should ideally be dissolved in carbonated water first) or baking soda (which can be added directly to the mash).
