9.5 # Weyermann Pilsner
1.0 # Cara-Pils
0.25 # Caramunich
0.5 # rice hulls
2 oz Saaz (70 mins)
1 oz Saaz (45 mins)
1 oz Saaz (15 mins)
0.25 tsp Irish Moss (10 mins)
20 mins @ 122
60 mins @ 154
10 mins @ 170
Higher than normal fermentation temperature in order to combat the reputed fruitiness of this yeast. No fruitiness is detected in the finished beer. Next time I would use a more flocculant yeast or filter--beer has not yet cleared completely.
