what yeast did you all use...kit yeast or something else...am going to try this kit next brew and will be the first lager i have tried
This was one of the best kit lagers ive made,
From memory (at work) I added in about 1kg dry malt, 200g of dex and about 20g of Saaz steeped in boiling water for 5mins.
The yeast is a true lager yeast and you can brew down to aruond 13 I think, I only went to 15 as I was using an esky with ice blocks.
One point though, it tasted OK after a couple of weeks in the bottle but really got good after about 6 weeks.
Enjoy
I may be wrong, but eyeballing the yeast in this kit I would say it is a mix of 189 and 34/70.
Cracking my first euro partial tmro. 3 weeks old, hope its good.
Just downed my first euro lager, Hendos
swilled it down whilst bottling a Canadian Blonde with extras.
anyway, as i described earlier the grains are coming through, giving it a greenish taste, but aside from that the hop flavours and bitterness are very nice,
once that grain settles...probably 4-6 weeks away should be awesome.
took some photos on my phone but have to rush to work, will try and post later.
