pilsner

This is the third beer I've brewed. The previous two used a general ale yeast advised to ferment at 65-70, and I thusly assumed this was a standard brewing temperature across all yeast strains. This batch, however, is a pils using Wyeast Czech Pils 2278, and after 36ish hours at 65-70 degrees...

I've collected several bulk hops purchases over the last few months. Wanting to use them in something I brewed up an IPA with what I had left. Including a hopshot that I've never used before. The recipe and recipe and full details are available on my website...

Hey all, I don't have a ton of experience with infusion mashes; I've done them once or twice with mixed results. I'm planning on brewing a Czech pilsner this weekend with the following mash schedule: Step 1: 146F for 35 minutes. 9.52 quarts strike 160F (1.12 qt/lb using 8.5# grain). Step 2...

Hello everyone! I'm new here and I've just started brewing my 4th batch of beer - a NZ pilsner this time (Mangrove Jacks). I'm going to dry hop it with some Cascade hops together with the hops that are included in the kit (Nelson Salvin, Pacific Jade and Motueka). What are your experiences...

I used 34/70 for a Pilsener (Pils, Vienna, Carafoam, Biscuit; Saaz and Pacific Jade) I brewed before Thanksgiving and am now getting a strong phenolic character in the beer. It was clean for several months, scored high 30s in a local competition, and had a nice lager character for that time. I...

My local shop has stock full of 2017 NZ hops and I was planning on making a pilsner and an IPA. I've never used any NZ hops before, so this is going to be somewhat a shot in the dark. I think I'll do 100% pilsner malt as I want it to be really crisp and make the hops shine. ----- 17L / 4.5gal...

I have many friends that continue to ask me for a Pilsner. I find Trumer Pils to be the best tasting example of a craft type Pils recipe and would like to brew something like it for my friends. I am aware that they use only German noble hops (Saaz and Hallertau?) and de-husked pilsner malt...

Hi guys/gals. Long time listener, first time caller. Ok so I looked thru the forum quite a bit and I hope it's ok to post this here. Anyway, I brewed my first pils yesterday and have a couple questions because I had difficulty getting my wort down below 70°. I live in Michigan and the temp...

Hello fellow brewers. Ive been playing around with the idea of making a Dark Pilsner. I know Dark Lagers are very popular but being a bit of an experimentalist, I'm thinking why not a Dark Pilsner! Thing is i've never even made a Pilsner before. Does anyone have any advice or recipes to share?

Not having any idea what Northern Brewer hops taste like I decided to figure it out. I used the pilsner malt left over from another recipe to make a SMaSH beer. Here is my recipe: http://brewgr.com/recipe/47361/northerrn-brewer-pilsner-smash-american-pale-ale-recipe Video recipe: I'll...

I'm on Day 5 of lagering 11 gallons of a 1.045 OG Pilsner (my first lager). I did a split batch and had WY2124 (recommended yeast temp range of 45°-55°) in one carboy and WLP833 (recommended yeast temp range of 48°-55°) in another. Right now they are both sitting at 50° in the same fermentation...
