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. |

Notes: Mash in at 122F and hold for 20 minutes. Raise temperature to 149F and hold for 60 minutes. Raise temperature to 158F and begin runoff. If you're unable to step mash, mash grains at 149F for 90 minutes.
Boil for 60 minutes, adding hops as indicated.
Chill to 65F, transfer to fermenter, pitch yeast and oxygenate. Slowly raise temperature to 80F over 24-30 hours.
Primary fermentation should take 5-7 days. Dry hop when activity subsides. Rack off dry hops after 2 days but don't crash. The yeast will continue to break down dextrins over the next week or so. |

Notes: Add
2 oz burton water salts in Mash
2 oz of yeast nutrient at 10 min
1 whirl floc at 10 min
2 vials Clarity Ferm when pitching yeast
Mash at 153 for 1 hour
Gently stir mash every 10 minutes or as required if using RIMS
For best results, ferment at 60º - 75ºF.
After gravity drops to 1.018 or less (about 4 days)
Crush up the dry hop pellets into a powder and add to fermenter
Allow to ferment and settle until action has virtually ceased and the beer has clarified.
Check gravity for 1.015 or less, and then transfer beer off dry hops in 5 - 7 days.
At this point, if you wish, you may add Grapefruit Essence to taste to step up the citrusy character in the finish of the beer. Typically use runs in the 1 - 4 oz. per 5 gallon range. Add strictly to taste.
Allow beer to age at room temperature for at least two weeks before chilling. Peak flavor should be reached about six weeks and lasts several months.
