Light Lager

Posted by ben On January - 4 - 2010Comments Off
Ingredients:

1 Coopers Lager kit (3.75lbs) or any lager or pilsner kit
2 lbs light dry malt
2 Fresh packets of ale yeast
1 packet of pilsner enzyme (amylase enzyme)

Procedure:

Wort boiled for 15 minutes. This preserves the light color of the wort.
Fermentation will also take longer, about 3 to 4 weeks at 68F, because the enzymes will take awhile to convert and unfermentable sugar(body) to sugars the yeast can convert to alcohol.

Ingredients:

* 9.00 lb. Light Malt Extract Syrup
* 2.50 lb. Cara-Pils Dextrine
* 2.50 lb. Munich Light
* 2.50 oz. Cz Saaz 3.6% 60 min
* 1.50 oz. Cz Saaz 3.6% 30 min
* 2.00 oz. Cz Saaz 3.6% 0 min (Added at end of boil and

Procedure:

Water Evaporated during boil: 3.00 gal Add 13 gal of water to yield 10 gal of wort

1. Actual OG far less than planned due to lack of CHO extraction from specialty grains. (The program apparently calculated these grains like a full mash/sparge.) Next time should use 14 pounds of extract instead of 9.

2. Used 400 cc starter/5 gallons, of BR's Eastern European Lager yeast. Water was 10 gallons RO and 3 gallons bottled drinking water.

3. Fermented at 42-44F, took about 1 month. Secondary/lagered for about 1.5 months. Settled out nicely, never did filter or Polyclar, although would do so if bottling for competitions.
