make a starter and do at least one decoction. dont forget the diacetyl rest.
For a pilsner type beer, I'd recommend 100% pilsner malt and saaz hops. I don't have my recipe/mash schedule in front of me, but it seems to me I did something like: 131/149/158/mashout.
There are two good yeast strains I'd consider. One is the Czech Budvar strain, the other is the Pilsner Urquell strain.
Thanks Yooper, I can always count on good advice from you. Which yeast strain of the two would be your go-to for a pilsner? I'll pick of the saaz and go from there.
How thick a mash should I have again? and how long at each rest?
Thanks
