I'm going to brew this over the holidays. I'd like to order from BMW, but they don't specifically carry German 2 Row Pilsner Malt. Is Belgian Pilsner the same thing and a good substitute? Either that or Weyermann Pilsners is the closest I can find on BMW. Thanks for posting the recipe. And, as they say, a picture is worth a thousand words.

is it correct that you fermented this at 65?

It seemed a bit high to me, too. I started it at 65 for 2 days and then fermented between 48 - 55 (in a cold garage) for another couple weeks. It's currently lagering so I won't know how it turns out for a couple months. Tasted good going into the secondary, though.

Yeah, I did this schedule:

Primary Fermentation (# of Days & Temp): 7 days @ 65F
Additional Fermentation: 3 day diacetyl rest @ 70
Secondary Fermentation (# of Days & Temp): 8 weeks @ 40F

I have batch 2 almost ready to keg, which will be ready for 36th birthday!

Finally got around to kegging, carbing, and tapping this. After only a week on gas @ serving pressure this is by far the best brew I have ever made. Maybe I just finally did everything right, or maybe it's because this is my first lager and they're somehow harder to screw up? Maybe because this being a lager forced me to wait nearly 3 months before tasting it?

Super smooth with some decent lacing after only 7 days carbing up. I'm going to rig a way to counter-pressure bottle some of this and bring it down to the Three Floyd's Brewery's Dark Lord Day Festival near the end of this month. Thanks for posting this recipe. I couldn't be happier with it.

I am almost finished with my second batch of this... I will be brewing this for my birthday until the day I die. I love it! Second batch was as good as the first.

Is it realy important to get it at 40 for the sec fermentation?!

Cant get that low temp in my house, Best place for it will be in the freezer but maybe at 35?!

40 is probably on the high end for lagering... You're good at 35F. I've seen 30-35 for good lagering.
