Pistonhead Haze Lager

[cederbusch]

Not a fan of lager, but I like this one and thinking about giving it a go.

Recipe seem pretty straight forward: Pilsner and Cara to hit the color. Bittering with Magnum at 60, aroma and flavor with Galaxy at 30 and 15. Some at flameout too?
Have slurry from Mangrove Jack´s Bavarian Lager yeast that should leave some more taste to the beer.

How could I use that info about residual sugar? I can´t interpret what 2,1% really means. Mash higher temp? Add some Lactose or other sugar?

I never saw the term "residual sugar wt" before and had to take a look....
It seems that the 2nd paragraph here might answer your question...

Yeah I saw that site too, but it doesn't really explain what 2,1% means in terms of flavor impact on the beer. Well, it kind of does: it says that sugars doesn't necessarily tastes sweet.

Ah, now things made sense. The beer fermented to a FG of 1.008.
