Notes: The color is considerably darker. Two decoctions: Decoction 1 for 20 minutes (1 liters) and decoction 2 for 10 minutes (1 liter).

Reduced the original boil from 90 minutes to 60 minutes. Also adjusted the gain as the effiency was 76% vs. originally planned 70%.

Had to add back 3 liters of water to hit 1.050 specific gravity after boil.

A lager fermentation consists of these 3 phases:

primary fermentation : main fermentation of the fermentable extract. The bulk of the CO2 and alkohol are created here. Chill the beer to at/below pitching temperature, 9–10°C.
Pitch the yeast and wait 24–48 hours for fermentation to begin. Maintain the temperature for two weeks.

maturation : the yeast is allowed to clean up some of its byproducts like diacetyl (butterscotch flavor) and acetaldehyde (green apple flavor). After active fermentation slows, raise the temperature over several days to 18°C. Allow the beer to sit there for two or three days to clean up the diacetyl.

cold stabilization (lagering) : the low temperature causes haze forming proteins and polyphenols come out of solution and drop out of suspension. There is also a mellowing of flavors and some formation of esters happening. The latter becomes only significant after more than 12 weeks. Lower the temperature to 1°C to 2°C by reducing temp. 1°C per day.

Notes: Step by Step

Mill the grains and dough-in targeting a mash temperature of 152°F. Hold the mash at around 152°F for 90 minutes. Collect first runnings into boil kettle and begin heating. Sparge with 21 qt of 166°F water, collecting wort and adding to kettle until the pre-boil kettle volume is around 6.5 gallons. Take hydrometer reading.

The total wort boil time is 60 minutes. Add 3 lbs of Belgian Candi and the bittering hops with 25 minutes remaining in the boil. Add Irish moss and Maltodextrine with 15 minutes left in the boil. Add wort-chiller to the boil with 10 minutes left. Add aroma hops with 5 minutes left in the boil. Chill the wort to 70°F and aerate thoroughly. Pitch one package of Safale-05 into 6.5 gallon fermenting bucket and add airlock.

Ferment at 67°F until the yeast drops clear. At this temperature and with healthy yeast, fermentation should be complete in 10-14 days. Rack to a bottling bucket, add 5 oz. of priming sugar, and bottle. Target a carbonation level of 2.5 volumes.

In Brew Like A Monk, one of the brewers recommended mashing out and sparging no higher than 163. That way you purposely don't denature the enzymes and conversion continues until the boil starts. If you're mashing at 146, you're going for a highly fermentable, dry beer. "In that situation, 163 makes sense. I did it on my last batch. I achieved my best efficiency to date and fermentation went like gangbusters. This wasn't a huge beer (1.046 SG) and I nearly had a blowout with 5 gallons in a 6.5 gallon Ale Pail (the kreusen crept up the airlock but didn't quite go out the top)."
