Brewing Process
1. Mashing
In a large pot, combine the Pilsner malt and wheat malt with 3 liters of water. Heat the mixture to 65°C (149°F) and maintain this temperature for 60 minutes.
2. Sparging
After mashing, slowly drain the liquid (wort) into another pot. Rinse the grains with an additional 2 liters of hot water to extract more sugars.
3. Boiling
Bring the collected wort to a boil, then add the Hallertau hops. Boil for 60 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4. Cooling the Wort
After boiling, cool the wort quickly using a wort chiller or an ice bath until it reaches around 20°C (68°F).
5. Fermentation
Transfer the cooled wort to a sanitized fermentation vessel, pitch the yeast, and seal with an airlock. Allow fermentation to occur at room temperature for about 1-2 weeks.
Serving Suggestions
8. Adding Syrup
