Notes: Won 1st place in club-only homebrew club Lager competition out of 8 entries.
1 vial of yeast used to make 1L starter, split between (2) 5-gallon carboys.
2 hour mash was necessary on my system to extract all possible sugars out of corn and rice. Gravity after 1 hour was ~1.040, and after 2 hours was ~1.060.
Hold fermentation at 52F for first 4-5 days.
Before krausen settles, begin raising temp to 60-65F for Diacetyl rest.
After 3 weeks, rack to secondary.
Chill secondary to 38F over the period of several days, hold at this temp for 4+ weeks. |

| Notes: I am a BIG fan of darker beers. I have also fallen in love with Nut Browns. So, I added the chocolate to this in hopes of imparting a dark color, a little more nuttiness, and caramel flavor. I added a few OZ of Smoked malt to add the "smoke" flavor that likely would have been present in a true "old world" nut brown. This is my very first and very experimental recipe. |
