In celebration of my October trip to the Sam Adam's Brewery, I decided to clone their famous Boston Lager Here is what you need:
9lbs 2 Row Single pale malt
1/2lbs 60L US crystal Malt
2oz Tettnanger Hops
3/4oz Hallertau Mittlefru Hops
1tsp Irish Moss
Wyeast 2206 Bavarian Lager Yeast
How you do it:
Mash Schedule:
Put all the malt in your mash tun crushed and add water to heat to ~122F for 30 mins. After which raise temp to 150F for 60 mins. For this use ~1/3 quart per pound of malt. Sparge at ~170 with 5 gal water and drain into brew pot.
Boil:
Bring your wort to a boil and add 1 1/2oz Tettnanger Hops. Boil for 45 mins then add 1/2oz Hallertau Mittlefru hops and irish moss. After 10 mins add the last 1/2oz Tettnanger Hops and remove from heat. Let your wort stand for 5 mins. Cool and strain into primary fermenter. Once primary fermentation is complere (5-7 days) transfer to secondary fermenter or remove trube and add the last 1/4oz Hallertau Mittlefru Hops. You can use 1 1/4 cup extra light Dried Malt extract, or muttons KreamX for conditioner. OG should be between 1.049-1.052 and FG 1.011-1.013. Happy Brewing!!
