Notes: This classic Irish red pours a dark red/copper color and features a sweet caramel and toasted malt profile.

Step by step
This is a single step infusion mash. Mix the crushed grains with 3.7 gallons (14 L) of 170 °F (77 °C) water to stabilize at 150 ºF (66 °C) for 60 minutes. Sparge slowly with 175 °F (79 °C) water. Collect approximately 6 gallons (23 L) of wort runoff to boil for 60 minutes. While boiling, add the hops, Irish moss and yeast nutrient. After the boil is complete, add the wort to 2 gallons (7.6 L) of cold water in the sanitized fermenter and top off with cold water up to 5 gallons (19 L).

Cool the wort to 75 °F (24 °C). Pitch your yeast and aerate the wort heavily. Allow the beer to cool to 68 °F (20 °C). Hold at that temperature until fermentation is complete. Transfer to a carboy. Allow the beer to condition one week and then bottle or keg. Allow the beer to carbonate and age for two weeks and enjoy!

Extract with grains version:
Reduce the 2-row pale malt from the all-grain version to 1 lb. (0.45 kg) and add 3.3 lbs. (1.5 kg) Briess light liquid malt extract and 2 lbs. (0.9 kg) light dried malt extract. Steep the crushed grain in 2 gallons (7.6 L) of water at 150 °F (66 °C) for 30 minutes. Remove grains from the wort and rinse with 2 quarts (1.8 L) of hot water. Add the liquid and dried malt extracts and boil for 60 minutes. While boiling, add the hops, Irish moss and yeast nutrient. After the boil is complete, add the wort to 2 gallons (7.6 L) of cold water in the sanitized fermenter and top off with cold water up to 5 gallons (19 L). Follow the remaining portion of the all-grain recipe.

Notes: Did a diacetyl rest.

Cold crashed for 24 hr @40F
Kegged using closed loop for minimum oxygen contamination.

Appearance is 3.5/5

Haze could be more opaque so it resembles orange juice.
It looks like orange juice mimosa at best.

Maybe skip cold crash for hazier appearance?

Flavor: 2/5

The hops are not smooth and nuanced per style.
Needs work on the tropical notes.

Fix water chemistry to help maintain style guidelines.
Great hop profile for an IPA.

*Values may vary in the brewing process.

3A. Czech Pale Lager
Overall Impression: A lighter-bodied, rich, refreshing,
hoppy, bitter pale Czech lager having the familiar flavors of the
stronger Czech Premium Pale Lager (Pilsner-type) beer but in a
lower alcohol, lighter-bodied, and slightly less intense format.
Aroma: Light to moderate bready-rich malt combined with
light to moderate spicy or herbal hop bouquet; the balance
between the malt and hops may vary. Faint hint of caramel is
acceptable. Light (but never intrusive) diacetyl and light, fruity
hop-derived esters are acceptable, but need not be present. No
sulfur.
Appearance: Light gold to deep gold color. Brilliant to very
clear, with a long-lasting, creamy white head.
Flavor: Medium-low to medium bready-rich malt flavor with
a rounded, hoppy finish. Low to medium-high spicy or herbal
hop flavor. Bitterness is prominent but never harsh. Flavorful
and refreshing. Diacetyl or fruity esters are acceptable at low
levels, but need not be present and should never be
overbearing.
Mouthfeel: Medium-light to medium body. Moderate
carbonation.
Comments: The Czech name of the style is světlé výčepní
pivo.
History: Josef Groll initially brewed two types of beer in
1842–3, a výčepní and a ležák, with the smaller beer having
twice the production; Evan Rail speculates that these were
probably 10 °P and 12 °P beers, but that the výčepní could have
been weaker. This is the most consumed type of beer in the
Czech Republic at present.
Characteristic Ingredients: Soft water with low sulfate and
carbonate content, Saazer-type hops, Czech Pilsner malt, Czech
lager yeast. Low ion water provides a distinctively soft,
rounded hop profile despite high hopping rates.
Style Comparison: A lighter-bodied, lower-intensity,
refreshing, everyday version of Czech Premium Pale Lager.
Vital Statistics: OG: 1.028 – 1.044
IBUs: 20 – 35 FG: 1.008 – 1.014
SRM: 3 – 6 ABV: 3.0 – 4.1%
Commercial Examples: Březňák Světlé výčepní pivo, Notch
Session Pils, Pivovar Kout na Šumavě Koutská 10°, Únětické
pivo 10°
Tags: session-strength, pale-color, bottom-fermented, lagered,
central-europe, traditional-style, pale-lager-family, bitter,
hoppy
3B. Czech Premium Pale Lager
Overall Impression: Rich, characterful, pale Czech lager,
with considerable malt and hop character and a long, rounded
finish. Complex yet well-balanced and refreshing. The malt
flavors are complex for a Pilsner-type beer, and the bitterness
is strong but clean and without harshness, which gives a
rounded impression that enhances drinkability.
Aroma: Medium to medium-high bready-rich malt and
medium-low to medium-high spicy, floral, or herbal hop
bouquet; though the balance between the malt and hops may
vary, the interplay is rich and complex. Light diacetyl, or very
low fruity hop-derived esters are acceptable, but need not be
present.
Appearance: Gold to deep gold color. Brilliant to very clear
clarity. Dense, long-lasting, creamy white head.
Flavor: Rich, complex, bready maltiness combined with a
pronounced yet soft and rounded bitterness and floral and
spicy hop flavor. Malt and hop flavors are medium to mediumhigh, and the malt may contain a slight impression of caramel.
Bitterness is prominent but never harsh. The long finish can be
balanced towards hops or malt but is never aggressively tilted
either way. Light to moderate diacetyl and low hop-derived
esters are acceptable, but need not be present.
Mouthfeel: Medium body. Moderate to low carbonation.
Comments: Generally a group of pivo Plzeňského typu, or
Pilsner-type beers. This style is a combination of the Czech
styles světlý ležák (11–12.9 °P) and světlé speciální pivo (13–
14.9 °P). In the Czech Republic, only Pilsner Urquell is called a
Pilsner, despite how widely adopted this name is worldwide.
Kvasnicové (“yeast beer”) versions are popular in the Czech
Republic, and may be either kräusened with yeasted wort or
given a fresh dose of pure yeast after fermentation. These beers
are sometimes cloudy, with subtle yeastiness and enhanced
hop character. Modern examples vary in their malt to hop
balance and many are not as hop-forward as Pilsner Urquell.
History: Commonly associated with Pilsner Urquell, which
was first brewed in 1842 after construction of a new brewhouse
by burghers dissatisfied with the standard of beer brewed in
Plzeň. Bavarian brewer Josef Groll is credited with first
brewing the beer.
Characteristic Ingredients: Soft water with low sulfate and
carbonate content, Saazer-type hops, Czech malt, Czech lager
yeast. Low ion water provides a distinctively soft, rounded hop
profile despite high hopping rates. The bitterness level of some
larger commercial examples has dropped in recent years,
although not as much as in many contemporary German
examples.
Style Comparison: More color, malt richness, and body than
a German Pils, with a fuller finish and a cleaner, softer
impression. Stronger than a Czech Pale Lager.
Vital Statistics: OG: 1.044 – 1.060
IBUs: 30 – 45 FG: 1.013 – 1.017
SRM: 3.5 – 6 ABV: 4.2 – 5.8%
Commercial Examples: Bernard Sváteční ležák, Gambrinus
Premium, Kout na Šumavě Koutská 12°, Pilsner Urquell,
Pivovar Jihlava Ježek 11°, Primátor Premium, Únětická 12°
Tags: standard-strength, pale-color, bottom-fermented,
lagered, central-europe, traditional-style, pilsner-family,
balanced, hoppy

Notes: Original Recipe: https://www.homebrewersassociation.org/homebrew-recipe/what-the-helles/

Start with RO water, adding minerals to achieve water profile: Ca = 44, Mg = 1, Na = 7, SO4 = 58, Cl = 41, and HCO3 = 20. Note: Acidulated malt was used to adjust RO water pH. Other liquid acid additions can be used in the mineral additions (phosphoric for example) in place of Acidulated malt if desired.

Double infusion mash. Protien rest at 122° F for 30 minutes. Saccharification rest at 154° F for 30 minutes. No mash out.

Sparge, collect runnings and boil for 90 minutes. Conduct a 20 minute whirlpool after knockout, adding hop additions.

Primary fermentation: Chill to 50° F and pitch starter yeast. Allow to free climb to 54° F. Diacetyl rest at 66° F for 3-days. After the diacetyl rest is complete transfer to secondary or dump yeast and slowly reduce temperature to 38° F. Lager for 30 days

Notes: Steep 1lb Pale Malt in 2.5-3 gallons at 155 degrees. I used a wet hop ratio of 5:1 for my homegrown Chinook hops. IBU's hard to determine with homegrown hops but it did come out with a nice hoppy presence. Fresh hops were definitely noticeable.
