Heat 20 liters of water to about 68°C (155°F) and add the pale malt and caramel malt. Maintain this temperature for 60 minutes.

Mashing

After mashing, sparge the grains with hot water to collect the wort. Collect around 25 liters of wort.

Sparging

Bring the wort to a boil and add 50g of Saaz hops. Boil for 60 minutes, adding 30g of Hallertau hops in the last 15 minutes of the boil.

After boiling, cool the wort quickly to about 18-20°C (64-68°F).

Transfer the cooled wort to a fermentation vessel and pitch the yeast. Seal and allow to ferment at around 12-14°C (54-57°F) for 2-3 weeks.

Once fermentation is complete, add priming sugar to the beer and bottle it. Store the bottles at room temperature for carbonation.

After about 2 weeks, chill the bottles and enjoy your homemade Birra Moretti Pale Lager!
