Mother's Day Pale Lager
1 kg flaked corn (steeped 75 minutes at ~150*F)
1500 g pale DME
500 g amber DME
19 g Cascade 60 minutes
36 g Bullion 25 minutes
12 g Saaz 0 minutes
Cooper's Cervesa yeast (all I had at the time)
OG 1.054 (May 10, 2009)
FG 1.002 (June 30, 2009)
Yield 17 L
Taste at bottling: Nice and hoppy, while I did use leftover Cascade hops, I must have done something right by putting them in at first boil. Strong hop taste, I think I've been hooked on hops.
According to TastyBrew's online calculator, I have a 96% or so yeast attenuation. I know I've calculated the gravities correctly, so is this possible with a generic yeast?
