Notes

Target a mash pH of 5.3.

No active sparging is required.

This is a Pilsner mash profile that can be used for styles requiring high attenuation and/or modification.

Add 13.93 gal of water, 20 ml lactic acid, 10 g calcium chloride, 6 g magnesium sulfate at 126°F (52°C) to steep for 15-minute protein rest. Heat to 149°F (65°C) over 11 minutes, then rest 60 minutes at that temperature. Heat to 172°F (78°C) over six minutes for mash out. Hold for 10 minutes then remove grain. Boil 60 minutes, adding orange peel with 5-minute hops. After flameout, add whirlpool hops for a 15-minute steep, then coriander for
a 5-minute steep. Allow to chill to 67°F (19°C), oxygenate, and pitch yeast. Ferment until completion. Force carbonate to 2.3 volumes CO₂ or re-ferment with 3.93 oz. (112 g) corn sugar.
