Classification: pale lager, pilsner, extract
The yeast I used produced a very clean, clear beer and I'd recommend it highly. It you haven't gotten into liquid
yeast cultures yet, do it for this batch. The difference is tremendous. Also I feel the key to success here are:
The lightest extract you can find.
Fresh hops or pellets packed in Nitrogen (only Saaz will do).
Liquid yeast fermented at a steady low temp.
Ingredients:
4 pound can, Alexander's Pale malt extract syrup
2-1/3 pounds, light dry malt extract
15 AAU's, Saaz hops
Wyeast 2007 Bohemian Pilsner yeast
Procedure:
Bring extracts and 2 gallons of water to boil. Add 5 AAU's of Saaz hops at beginning of boil. Add 5 AAU's again at
30 minutes and at 10 minutes. Pitch yeast when cool.
