Being a Hophead, Ive only recently come to truly appreciate a good pilsner. The beer that turned my head is Firestone Walkers Pivo Pils. Consequently, I decided to try a clone recipe I found for Pivo Pils. However, after reviewing several other pilsner recipes, Im thinking that Id add one more ounce of spalt hops at flameout. Additionally another change is that Im forced to use "Select Spalt" hops which are perhaps an additional .5-.75% greater AA than listed in the clone recipe. I would appreciate the collective wisdom regarding adding the additional hops at flameout. The recipe is as follows;
Malt
10 lbs German Pilsner 2-row
1 lb Vienna Malt
8 oz. lb Carapils
Hops
1/2 oz. Magnum 14%a, 60 minutes
1 oz. Spalt 4%a, 30 minutes
1 oz. Spalt 4%a, 15 minutes
Yeast: White Labs WLP800 Pilsner Lager Yeast
Dry-Hops: 1 oz. Saphir
Malt
10 lbs German Pilsner 2-row
1 lb Vienna Malt
8 oz. lb Carapils
Hops

1 oz. Spalt 4%a, 30 minutes
1 oz. Spalt 4%a, 15 minutes
