WW Bohemian Pilsner 50 Litre Kit

Bohemian Pilsner Complete Kit.

A traditional Bohemian Pilsner with a rich, complex maltiness and a crisp finish. Our Bohemian Pilsner is deep gold in appearance with a high bitterness and long lasting creamy head. The yeast employed is a classic German Pilsner yeast that leaves a very clean taste. This kit includes 2x 1.7kg cans of Bohemian Pilsner, 1x 3kg bag of Dry Malt Extract and 2x 11.5g packs of Fermentis S-23 lager yeast. Original Gravity of 1.045 (11.25°P), fermented to a Final Gravity of about 1.009 (2.3°P), resulting in 4.8% alcohol by volume, 37 Bitterness Units and 6 SRM/12 EBC colour. Ferment at 18-28ºC / 64-77ºF (ideally near the middle of this range).

To elevate the fresh hop aroma of this style, we recommend the brewer make a hop tea of 1-2 oz. (28-56 grams) of any aroma hops in a French coffee press. Add approx. 900ml of boiled water, cooled to 80°C, to the hops. Stir and then steep for 30 minutes. Plunge the solids and add the green, filtered hop tea to the mix of ingredients in your fermenter (before adding the yeast).
