Notes: Reusing yeast from a previous brew.

Add pumpkin purée to mash with grains.
Mash 90 minutes at 153F.

Boil 75 minutes, add pumpkin pie spice and maple syrup at flameout with remaining hops.

Ferment at 51. Add vanilla beans for lagering.
Plan to lager for about 11 weeks to have ready for season.
Honestly, I plan to only add 1 vanilla bean for lagering. 3 beans for 11 weeks seems like too much vanilla.

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.

***With the regular 3.5%AA Saaz the hop additions are 1.5oz @ 90min, 2oz @ 20min, 1oz @ 10min, 1oz @ 0min.

Bohemian Pilsener
(5 gallons/19 L, all-grain)
OG = 1.056 (13.9 °P) FG = 1.016 (4.2 °P)
IBU = 40 SRM = 4 ABV = 5.3%

Ingredients:
10.75 lb. (4.8 kg) Durst continental Pilsner malt (or similar) 2 °L
0.75 lb. (340 g) Briess Carapils® malt (or similar) 2 °L
4.83 AAU Czech Saaz hops (1.38 oz./39 g for 3.5% alpha acid) (60 min)
5.8 AAU Czech Saaz hops (1.67 oz./47 g for 3.5% alpha acid) (30 min)
2.9 AAU Czech Saaz hops (0.83 oz./24 g of 3.5% alpha acid) (10 min)
2.9 AAU Czech Saaz hops (0.83 oz./24 g of 3.5% alpha acid) (0 min)
White Labs WLP800 (Pilsner Lager), Wyeast 2001 (Urquell) or Fermentis Saflager S-23 yeast

Step by Step
Mill the grains and dough-in targeting a mash of around 1.5 quarts of water to 1 pound of grain (a liquor-to-grist ratio of about 3:1 by weight) and a temperature of 154 °F (68 °C). Hold the mash at
154 °F (68 °C) until enzymatic conversion is complete. Infuse the mash with near boiling water while stirring or with a recirculating mash system raise the temperature to mash out at 168 °F (76 °C). Sparge slowly with 170 °F (77 °C) water, collecting wort until the pre-boil kettle volume is around 6.5 gallons (25 L) and the gravity is 1.044 (10.9 °P).

The total wort boil time is 90 minutes, which helps reduce the SMM (S-methyl methionine) present in the lightly-kilned Pilsner malt and results in less DMS (Dimethyl Sulfide) in the finished beer. Add the first hop addition with 60 minutes remaining in the boil. The other hop additions are at 30, 10, and zero minutes left in the boil. Add Irish moss or other kettle finings with 15 minutes left in the boil.

Chill the wort to 50 °F (10 °C) and aerate thoroughly. The proper pitch rate is 20 grams of properly rehydrated dry yeast, four packages of liquid yeast or one package of liquid yeast in a
9-liter starter.

Ferment around 50 °F (10 °C) until the yeast drops clear. With healthy yeast, fermentation should be complete in two weeks or less, but don’t rush it. Cold fermented lagers take longer to ferment than ales or lagers fermented at warmer temperatures. If desired, perform a diacetyl rest during the last few days of active fermentation.

Rack the finished beer to a keg and force carbonate or rack to a bottling bucket, add the priming sugar, and bottle. Target a carbonation level of 2 to 2.5 volumes.

A month or more of cold conditioning at near freezing temperatures will mellow some of the flavors and improve the beer. Serve at 43 to 46 °F (6 to 8 °C).

Notes: Made on my BM20L, I mashed with 25 litres and sparged with 6 litres.

Very happy with the results. Fruity and some tartness and just a bit of dryness. Absolutely full of flavour, each mouthfull you can pick up different notes.

Notes: This has turned out really well with a nice malty/toasty flavour coming through from the Amber malt. It is well balance with some hop flavour and aroma but this is secondary to the malt. I think next time I may back of on the amber malt a bit and go for 150g instead of 300g but I had some I wanted to use up.

For my taste I may up the IBUs next time but that is because I like a really bitter beer. This is probably closer to the suggested style.

I used yeast cultured from Young's London Special Ale which is reportedly the same as Wyeast 1768. The slightly better than expected attenuation could have been because of the 20 minute rest at 62oC before raising the temp to 68oC. I then mashed out at 75oC.

It's not a million miles away from something like Old Speckled Hen, but with a bit more malt and less sweetness.

Very nice!
