i was reading a transcript form a talk given at 2005 AHA regarding the comparison of the two techniques for brewing lagers and gaining favorable malt profiles. It was purported that no-sparge was a reasonable alternative to decoction. I do a fair amount of no-sparge brewing of ales, but am rather green when it comes to lagers. I am planning to brew two batches of Munich Helles using both techniques as a study. Any discussion would be appreciated. A specific question I have for the no-sparge is the mash schedule. I was thinking about 130F for 10 minutes, 20 minutes at 147F, and 154F to conversion. I am using 96% Weyermann Pilsner malt.
