I don't have a fridge yet to lager but I have a recipie I want to try. If I use an ale yeast how will the taste be changed?
Brew chick said:This is what the Belgian's do! lager or pale malt, lager hops and a top fermenting yeast. it'll look like lager and have a slight fruitiness from the yeast,go for it!!
Lounge Lizard said:Maybe if he used WL California Ale yeast, there wouldn't be any fruitiness? It is supposed to be a very clean fermenting yeast.
I didn't know there was such a thing as "lager malt." What's the difference between it and just plain old 2 row or DME?
Thanks...
As you may already know pale malt is a fully modified malt that's kilned at low temp for long period till moisture is about 3 per cent,with good diastatic activity,colour is usualy 5 EBC.Lounge Lizard said:I didn't know there was such a thing as "lager malt."
