Notes: Hoppy Pilsner!
Mill the grains and mash at 156°F (69°C) for 45 minutes. Recirculate until the runnings are clear, then run off into the kettle. Sparge and top up as necessary to get about 6 gallons (23 liters) of wort, depending on your evaporation rate. Boil for 90 minutes, adding hops, yeast nutrient, and finings according to the schedule. After the boil, do a whirlpool step: Stir or recirculate to create a vortex, add the whirlpool hops, and steep 10 minutes. Chill to about 50°F (10°C), aerate the wort, and pitch the yeast. Ferment at 50°F (10°C). When the gravity has dropped below 1.020, raise the temperature to 60°F (16°C). When fermentation is complete and gravity has stabilized, do a forced diacetyl test. Once it passes (usually around Day 14), drop the temperature by 4°F (~2°C) per day—adding dry hops at 40°F (4°C)—until the beer reaches 32°F (0°C). Drop hops or rack, lager for 2 weeks, then package and carbonate to about 2.7 volumes of CO2.
Chit malt will ensure you have great head retention—it’s worth it. We use New York City water, which is very soft—like in Plzeň!—and modify it lightly with gypsum and calcium chloride. Feel free to swap out the dry hops to your liking; we prefer a mix of New and Old World hops. In fact, we have other “Crispy” iterations with different dry hops; one called Crispy Morning will be the lineup’s core going forward. |

Notes: 0) Boil for 15 mins after sparge to sterilize the wort before souring.
1) The 2nd round of acid addition is to pre-acidify the wort to 4.5pH, before souring.
2) Hold temp around 100F during the souring phase.
3) Add 70 capsules of the higher cell count probiotic - this contains some active yeast too, but it may die at the souring temp. Add all the remaining cranberry probiotic tablets after that.
4) The 2nd round of salt is during the boil after souring.

Notes: They spend 30 minutes at 100 °F (38 °C), 45 minutes at 125 °F (52 °C), 30 minutes at 145 °F (63 °C), and 30 minutes at 158 °F (70 °C), and finally mash out.
Let the temperature rise a couple degrees then hold it. The yeast will be finishing up their work within 3 days, at which time you might decide to rack it to a secondary and use some sort of fining agent to improve clarification. Isinglass was traditionally used. |

| Notes: Start at 65 or 66degF. Let it free rise to 72 or 75degF. Let it sit for 2 weeks. First time I made this, I overboiled and started at 1.109, made it rise to slowly (was 1degF every 12 hours and stopped it at 72), stopped fermentation after 7 days (FG reading at this time was 1.020; this yeast probably needed some more time), and bottle conditioned with target 2.75volCO2. They were all gushers, but not bottles were harmed during conditioning of this beer. I used Harris Teeter spring water with no additions. Received an honorable mention in a local HB comp. Hops AA was low. Simply kept recipe at 1oz of hops and adjusted first and late additions such that I hit IBU in the 20s. |
