Notes

This recipe uses a lager yeast that is tolerant of warmer fermentation temperatures while maintaining a clean fermentation profile. If possible, ferment at the cool end of the range (12C - 15C). The beer will benefit from lagering for at least 2 weeks if kegged or after bottle conditioning is complete. It will continue to improve if stored cool.

  1. If flavour minerals are available, add to boil only as mash pH is taken care of with acid malt.
  2. If available, add kettle finings and yeast nutrient 15 min before the end of boil.
  3. Cool the wort to 85C, add the whirlpool hops and maintain the temp at 85C for 20 min before continuing to chill to pitching temp.
  4. It is recommended that the yeast be rehydrated per the manufacturers instructions. Pitch at 12C - 15C and maintain until fermentation is nearing completion.
  5. Once fermentation slows (~7 - 10 days), raise temp to 18C for a diacetyl rest and add the dry hop addition.
  6. After 5 days, cold crash to 2C and let lager for at least a week before packaging.
  7. Carbonate to 2.7 volumes of CO2.
