4B Recycled Munich Dunkel

Info:
  • Brewer: Chris
  • Mash: 2-step Infusion plus residual from Doppelbock decoction
  • Date: 2/2/2008
  • Size: 6 gallon post-boil
  • Notes: For this mash I took a second run from my Doppelbock mash by adding a bunch of Munich and some Crystal on top of it. The Carafa II from the Doppelbock helped contribute some color, along with the residual sugars from the first mash.
Grain Bill:
  • 7.5lb Munich malt
  • 4oz Crystal 40L
  • spent grains from the Doppelbock earlier in the day
Yeast:
The Mash:
  • start with 12qt @ 130F for the new grains, settles at 120F
  • rest 40 minutes (I was busy sparging the Doppelbock)
  • added this mixture to the spent grains from the Doppelbock
  • add 9qt @ 200F, settles at 151F (w00t!)
  • rest 60 minutes
  • sparge using 180F
The Boil (90 minutes):
  • Volume to 28qt (7 gallons)
  • 1.5oz Mt Hood (4.1aau) @ 60
  • Total: 25 IBU(ish)
The Pitch:
  • OG: 1.048 (on the lighter side, but to style)
