OK, I've found at least a dozen recipes for Helles, and it seems that every single one of them calls for a different type of yeast. One calls for WY2206 Bavarian Lager (I think I got that right), another calls for German Pilsner yeast, another calls for Kolsh yeast, and ale yeasts, and on and on...
I'm thinking that Helles has to be a lager, and that the Bavarian Lager yeast might be the best bet.
What think ye?
Also, most recipes I've seen show Pilsner malt as the main ingredient, with smaller amounts of Vienna or Munich malt, and Cara-pils. Does that sound right?
Thanks
