Tone boy Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 86 days pilsner partial mash today. Went pretty well. I based the recipe around Coopers Czech Mate Pilsner, but swapped 500g DME for a partial mash of pilsner and carapils. I also didn’t have Saaz hops so used Hallertau Mittelfrüh instead. Here’s the recipe anyway: 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herbal Alchemy. Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 @Tone boy Would 1 kg of Pilsener grains be the abv equivalent to 1kg of DME? I predominantly brew midstrenght beers & I'd like to do a partial mash, so iam just trying to guesstimate some numbers. ie Coopers Pilsener+500g of Pilsener grain+250 carapills +saaz hops+lager yeast =3.5%abv? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey HA, probably depends a bit on how efficient your mash is, but generally speaking I think 1 kg of grain equals: 800g liquid malt extract; or 600g dry malt extract I I haven’t punched your numbers above into a brewing calculator, and you haven’t stated the volume of the brew, but ABV looks about right for a 23 litre brew 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herbal Alchemy. Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 @Tone boy thankyou for your response mate, Yeah i'd make up a 23 litre batch, I'd aim for a higher mash temperature of 68°-70°c as I've read longer & hotter mashers give off more unfermentables which is more desirable to midstrenght brewers. Efficiency has me a little stumped, I guess trial & error might shead some light on this, I'd be aiming for 60-80% efficiency I guess. I might start with adding 1 kilo of pilsen grain as my fermentable to start with. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might start with adding 1 kilo of pilsen grain as my fermentable to start with. Mid strength brewing isn't easy. Simply reducing the ingredients will only give you a "watery" beer. IMHO, the trick is to get as many flavours and non-fermentable sugars in the beer as possible without going overboard. I mash my Mid at 72C and add a fair bit of "Cara" malts to aid with body and sweetness. Hops are going in fairly late and a dcent amount of dry hops. The choice of yeast can also help, which is why I use Verdant, which brings nice flavours but doesn't attenuate overly high, so it has more body. The result is about 3%ABV from 4.25kg grain in a 26l batch. I think it is a tasty, happy and fruity beer with just a hint of mid-strength feeling. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tone boy Posted July 11 Share Posted July 11 Yes good point @Aussiekraut AK, choosing a yeast with moderate attenuation will help leave some body in the beer. @Herbal Alchemy. HA, the strike water (the heated water you add to the mash) calculator in Brewfather is a useful tool when calculating the temperature of the strike water for a specific mash temperature. It’s a freebie app (though you can pay for the premium version if you’re not a tight wad like me) and easy to use. Apologies if I’m telling you things you already know.

Back Brewing Posted July 14 Share Posted July 14 Well yesterday I brewed a rogers clone and the grandkids were here I sparged way too fast and I've missed my OG by 12 points if I boiled up 1 kilo of DME and added that to the fermenter with the cube would that give me the 12 points? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Assuming your batch is 23 litres, 1kg of DME will probably get you an extra 14 points. You could just add the Dry Malt to the fermenter and pour in the cube. If you want to boil it, perhaps pour a few litres from the cube into a pot then add the Dry Malt and give it a 5 minute boil. Cool in the sink and add it to the FV. If you use extra water to boil the Dry Malt, its benefit would be closer to the 12 points you are seeking. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is 22 litres in the cube what I was going to do is draw 3 litres out of the cube to boil it as I have some late hop additions I have to add but now I am going to use a kilo of DME I will only use 2 litres and the DME will bring it up to 3 litres for the boil. I reckon that should give me the 12 points. Thanks for your input mate 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will find a lot of brewers on Instagram from all over the world, there are a few members on this forum that have a presence also. I find it a great platform to post, watch & see what's happening in other countries, especially when this forum is quiet during the day. Cheers.
