Hi!
I have very little experience in brewing German dark lagers - more experience drinking them I have decided I'd like to brew a Marzen. I've looked into several recipies and tried to create my own twist. I'm brewing all-grain, but I need to use DME in order to achieve desired OG (grain capacity issue on my current equipment). Since I live in Europe I have converted the recipe to US units and 5 gallons.
I'm interested in feedback on my recipe. I really want to do a malty beer, but not overly sweet.
