Notes: - 2018-9 batch: Weyermann Barke Pils + 16% Munich
- next: Weyermann Pils + 20% munich
- 5g/L saaz was delicious, but 2022-10 going with a higher IBU and "less is more" 3g/L. Also adjusted efficiency to 75% from 80.
- no version of this has been too bitter. ignore the 45 IBU limit and go bigger
- 30% munich is too much. tastes like a more bitter Vienna lager. Not a bad thing, but not what we're after here. keep munich at or below 20%.
- 2023-5: pils + 5% caramunich (c40) seems to be the way to go here for body and color. massive dump of Saaz (5g/L) late hops and something high alpha for bitterness like Magnum or Herk. No water additions; Arvada Soft. Changed recipe to floor-malted but I usually go with standard weyermann pils because that's what I have.
- 2023-8: 50 IBU of herkules was good but could go higher. Probably try 55 next time and see what happens.
- 2024-1: dialing this back for a traditional Czech "draft" beer:
výčepní – a "draught" beer, though it can be bottled, brewed between 8° and 10°
- 2024-6: added munich, increased FWH to 44 IBU |

Notes: I have used a little known Australian hop bred by Hop Products Australia. The hop is Helga also known as Southern Hallatau. Although the hop never gained popularity, it was said by those who used it to be an excellent continental larger hop. HPA has just ceased production of the hop. I thought I would give it a go. It’s aroma in the foil bag was excellent. I am excited to seen what it produces in the beer.
I used Atlas malted grain from Voyager, a Australian boutique malt producer.It produced a very very clean wort with an excellent malt aroma. I will definitely use this grain again. Much better than Joe White.

Notes: Left Over Lager:
Grain bill is from left over grains from other batches. This is why the weird amounts of grain.
Magnum Hops are new to me giving them a try.
Spalt hops are on hand in the freezer.
First try with the Saflager 34/70. I have read several accounts of successful fermentation using this strain at ale temperatures. I don't have temperature control for my fermentation so I have stayed away from lagers. I thought I would give this a try.
Also first time adjusting water chemistry, using small amounts of CaCl and Gypsum. |
