Mash at 150 for 75 minutes Double sparge with slightly acidified second sparge water Boil for 90 minutes Whirfloc Tablet and Yeast Nutrient added with 5 minutes left in boil | ||||||||||||||||||||
Fermentation notes | 7 days at 45F Ramp to D-rest 3 days at 70F Ramp down to 32 F Lager for 90 days. (Try after 30 day lager. But this yeast takes quite long to lager out the sulfur character). | ||||||||||||||||||||
Tasting notes | This yeast was still very sulfury after 30 day lager period. Improved, but still somewhat sulfury at 60 days. At 90 days, it peaked, the hops began to drop out, and it placed 2nd in NHC first round and advanced to finals. | ||||||||||||||||||||
Credits | 2ND Place 2015 Chicago NHC, score of 40. |
