I haven't posted anything in a long time and I don't
feel like working on these stupid floor plans right now
so here I am daydreaming about my first lager!
Its an Oktoberfest/Marzen, fermenting at 54 deg. in my garage fridge.
Brewed on Sunday 8/19/2012
my buddy found the recipe on some other homebrew site
(im loyal to HBT of course!)
10 gal.
Wyeast Oktoberfest (cant remember the number) in a big starter
15# pilsen
6# munich
1# dark munich
1# cara munich
all are Weyermann Im pretty sure.
90 min. boil
1.5 oz. tettnanger @ 90
1.5 oz. hallertauer @ 90
1 oz. hallertauer @ 15
2 whirlflock tablets @10
the krausen looks a bit different than my ales, seems to be a bit 'foam-ier'. slightly bigger bubbles, and brighter white.
the plan is a week at 54 deg. then up a couple degrees per day for a week to 70 deg. for a diacytl rest. then cold crash to 36 and stays at 36 for a month? does this sound correct to everyone? Thanks. Cheers.
