Im currently drinking a boh pils and wondering if iv'e got it right? I'ts my first attempt so I used 4 packs S-23 in a 50L batch to make sure I had no yeast issues. The beer tastes quiet nice to me almost like a smokey honey, the bitterness is balanced quiet well. Would the smokey honey flavour and aroma come from the floor malted boh pils or could it be Diasatyl? I fermented at 10 degrees and raised to 17 degrees for a rest just before it finished then lagered for 3 months.
The recipe
otal for 1.0 batch: 50L
10.0 kg Bohemian Pilsner Malt
0.65 kg Carafoam
Czech Saaz (3.7%) 60min 100g
Czech Saaz (3.7%) 30min 125g
Czech Saaz (3.7%)10min 60g
Czech Saaz (3.7%) 0min 60g
4.0 ea Fermentis S-23 Saflager S-23
1.052
1.015
IBU-39
My main reason for asking is I want to know if the malt gave the honey flavour or has something gone wrong with fermentation. I have not really tasted diasalyl before so I don't really know what to look for.
Cheers
