Should be no need for adjustment for RA. Will add 8 g Calcium Chloride resulting in RA of 32.3. I like the tartness from the water.

Notes
Change hopping to FWH, drop zero minute addition.
Bronze Medal, the Brew Hut Docktoberfest competition, September 2016
For 2017, slightly modified grain bill (reversed proportion of Munich to Pilsner malts, added an ounce of Caramunich, deleted acidulated malt), upped IBUs to 25. Won Gold Medal at the Brew Hut's annual Oktoberfest competition. That's me with the medal and the booty box in the upper left photo.... Won gold at Rocky Mountain Homebrew Challenge.
For 2018: Modify as follows: Reduce IBUs to 23. Replace Tettnanger with Hallertau. Add some Carapils for head retention. Try mods on a 2.5 gallon batch.
I am not happy with the 2018 mods, particularly the melanoidin. Will keep the Carapils, lose the Crystal Malt and make a 3-gallon batch for Docktoberfest.
For 2019 I moved all the hops to FWH - no late hop additions. Otherwise using 2017 recipe. Will do a 3-gal batch using the historical decoction process and Vienna malt. Silver medal, The Brew Hut Docktoberfest competition 2019. Modifications for 2020 made 9/7/19.
For 2021 I traded Vienna for Pilsner, upped the Carafoam to 8 ounces. I'll keep the bittering where it was, attempt to find leaf Tettnanger - will need 3 oz and a bit of screening to keep hops from the kettle outlet. Redid the water profile using RO water and Munich Decarbonated profile, mash pH of 5.30. Upped the ABV to 5.5%. Accidentally included 2 pounds of dark wheat, added 4 oz Melanoidin to make up for malt flavor
For 2022: Added a flavor hop at 5 mins - Tettnanger.
