I brewed a stella clone on 2/28/10.
mini mash .5lbs munich malt and .25lbs crystal 10L in 3/4 gallon at 160 for 45 minutes then sparge with 170 degree water bringing it to 2 gallons
4lbs extra light DME @ 60
1oz goldings @ 60
1lb extra light DME @ 20
.5oz goldings @ 20
Used S-23 yeast
OG was 1.05
Kept it at 53 to 55 degrees until today (13 days). Gravity today was 1.014. I will then bring it up to 65 degrees over the next week. After that hopefully my gravity will be 1.011 or so. Then let it lager at 40 for 6 to 8 weeks.
How does everything look so far? This is my first lager.
