You know, it is almost sinful to brag about a recipe like this and not post it!

Seriously, congrats. Maybe I will try this as my first decoction. Is the recipe for your 'Munich amber' here the same as the 'Munich gold' listed in your recipes section??? (From your sig, it must be.)

I am currently enjoying a hefe that I single decocted. It's one of the nicest beers I've brewed. Color and taste is spot on.

Even though I now can steam infuse, I will be decocting again.

I wouldn't do a decoction except for certain styles, but it is an interesting process. I've been doing single decoction for hefes.
