Notes

It's been several years since I had a Paulaner Pils fresh in Germany and I still think about it often. I won't have a basis for comparison here in the states, but I'll fool myself into believing it's the perfect match.

Brewer Notes:
3-4L starter for yeast with yeast nutrient
O2 for about a min. after cooldown
Diacetyl rest at about 1.02-1.016 for at least 2 days by letting naturally rise to 62F-ish
Transfer to keg and cool back down to 50F, then 40F, then after a few days move to keezer at 34F for lagering
Fine w/gelatin after a few days
Lager as long as I can stand it (2-3 weeks?)
