Try to land around 5.4 Ph. You may need to use 10-15 ml of Lactic but I will leave that up to you. Definitely don't add premash.

Notes

Go with a slight underpitch on the yeast and do not add clarity ferm. I would really like to avoid this one krausening out so add the maximu allowable Ferm Cap. We are also doing a concentrated boil. only collect to about 115-120 gallons in the kettle. After a 60 min boil, add flameout hops and then do a long, hard whirlpool while topping off with cold groundwater. If we need ice I will go get it. The goal is to get it down to 180F or less. This is essential for this type of IPA. Let rest for at least 30mins after adding whirlpool hops and transfer to fermentor.

The 30lbs of pilsner references that entire open bag sitting up top. If its a bit more or less that's fine. Just add the whole bag.

It seems adding wheat flour to the mash is the way to go. Its only 2lbs so I don't think that will stick us. Regardless you might want to use some rice hulls.
