Joey, Welcome to the forum! What part of Austria are you from by chance? My favorite beer is an Austrian Märzen from Augustiner Bräu Mülln in Salzburg, and I have been chasing a recipe approximation for years. Dean

Welcome to the forum, looking forward to hearing of your progress and brewing.

I wonder if using a Kloster sourced yeast like "WLP835 " might help to zero in on the flavor as well, as White Labs says I understand they might be a distance apart, but maybe yeast was shared in the past?

I might be wrong, but from my brew sheets, I calculated efficiency around 64%, but I did notice your grains only total to 94.5%, per numbers next to the weights. Dean

Many of the Priming sugar calculators ask for the fermentation temperature to figure the required amount of sugar for desired CO2 volume levels. This is pretty straight forward for my ales since I do a constant fermentation temperature, but for lagers I wondered what temperature I should enter...

I am in the process of adding Viking malts to the spread sheet, with future plans of building a recipe maker of my own, because of me being a math and computer guy, this is my entertainment.

After a few more hours of searching I did find the old link here.

I need a pair of new brewing gloves
