Homebrewer_99 posted this recipe awhile back and I have some questions about it:
OG: 1048 / 11.9 Plato
Lager malt (Pilsen):
25 liters 5,300 gm / 23 liters 4,900 gm / 5 UK gals 10.65 lb / 5 US gals 8.85 lb (approx 5.4 lb DME)
Start of Boil: Saaz hops
25 liters 50 gm / 23 liters 45gm / 5 UK gals 1.5 oz / 5 US gals .3 oz
Last 15 mins of Boil add Irish Moss
25 liters 10 gm / 23 liters 10 gm / 5 UK gals .35 oz / 5 US gals .3 oz
Brewing Method: Temperature-stepped infusion or double concoction mash. Bottom working lager yeast.
Mash Schedule:
50C 20 mins (122F)
60C 40 mins (140F)
70C 40 mins (158F)
Boil Time: 90 mins
Racking Gravity: 1011 / 2.7 Plato
Alcohol Content: 5.0% ABV / 4.0% ABW
Bitterness: 20 EBU
Color: 4 EBU
Lager for 3 months.
How come the top says, "Spritzy aroma of hops and gentle fruit." when the only hops added are for bittering? How can it say aroma of hops when there are no aroma hops?
Also, will 5.4 lbs of DME actually end up with 5% alcohol. I would think more like 4%...
Anyone do this recipe?
Thanks!
