Notes

After a few brews of beer, I can also give the final details regarding the fermentation and taste of the beer;
I used the rapid fermentation method of lager - initially the fermentation was set to 13 degrees Celsius and left for 5 days, after which the temperature was raised to 19 degrees and by the end of fermentation, diacetyl rest was made to 18 degrees (3 days). The primary fermentation lasted for 2 weeks and thereafter converted into kegs as a secondary and remained for two more weeks. Carbonation in kegs at 30 PSI, 3 days and beer tastes great.
Amber in color, caramel and sweet in taste, but a perfect fit.
