All-Grain - Cubbies' Altbier
Recipe Type: All Grain Yeast: Wyeast 1007 German Ale Yeast Starter: Yes Additional Yeast or Yeast Starter: No Batch Size (Gallons): 5 Original Gravity: 1.052 Final Gravity: 1.012 IBU: 39 Boiling Time (Minutes): 60 Color: 14 Primary Fermentation (# of Days & Temp): 10 days Additional Fermentation: After primary fermentaition I moved to secondary and cold conditioned for several wee Secondary Fermentation (# of Days & Temp): As long as possible Tasting Notes: Copper brown color with a beautiful head. Very easy drinking, but lots of flavor
8lbs Pilsner 1.6L
2lb Munich 20L
4oz Chocolate Malt 350L
New Zealand Hallertauer 8.6%AA:
1oz @ 60
.25oz @ 40
Mash temps should be low to increase fermentability. I mash at 150, but lower would be fine too. Even though 1007 is an ale yeast, I find that lagering for several weeks in secondary increases the flavor and really helps clear up the beer. |
