I brewed this and did a side-by-side with the commercial bottled beer. Mine was lighter in color and a bit more on the bitter side. I followed the recipe, except I did a two-step infusion of 125 and 155 F each for 30 minutes.
The water was just filtered from the refrigeration with no other salts added. I tried the Inkbird temp controller and did a lagering schedule of 12C stepped up to 22 c for 2 days, then down to 6 C for a week, then bottled.
Then the head is white and creamy and stays forever.
