Beer Style: amber lager, Vienna
Recipe Type: extract
Description:
If anyone does this brew I would like to compare notes.
Ingredients:
  • 3/4 pound, crystal malt
  • 3/4 pound, Munich malt
  • 6--1/2 pounds, Ireks Munich amber extract
  • 1--1/2 ounces, Cascade hops (60 minute boil)
  • 1 ounce, Hallertauer hops (steep 5 minutes)
  • Wyeast #2206 Bavarian
  • 1 teaspoon, gypsum
  • 1 teaspoon, Irish moss
OG: 1.056 FG: 1.022
Procedure:
All malt boiled for an hour. I started a yeast culture in 22oz champange bottle to kick start the brew. Pitched at 83 degrees F and by morning it was at 50 degrees in the garage. It is now sitting in a spare refer at 40 degrees. Unfortunately I left the brew on the its trub for 3 weeks before becoming enlightened about the nastiness that can introduce. I must admit it has a bit of off-odor. No idea if this is normal or not.
