This recipe is designed to be in keeping with the 2021 BJCP Style guide 5D - German Pils.

Precision is a recipe created for The League of Brewers by Jamie McQuillan of Cell Division Brewery.

A German Pils should be a pale, dry, bitter German lager featuring a prominent hop aroma. Crisp, clean, and refreshing, with a bright golden colour and excellent head retention”. German all the way by design, Betsmalz Best pils makes up the bulk of the grist, with a touch of chit malt to ensure that a big fluffy head lingers to the bottom of your pint. Conforming to the Reinheitsgebot (German purity law), acidulated malt takes care of the pH adjustment of the mash, dialled in precisely to help deliver a crisp dry finish. Firm bittering with Hallertau Magnum hops and finishing with floral, herbal and spicy Tettnanger hops makes for maximum thirst quenching drinkability. Prost!

This recipe assumes correct mineral additions for pH calculations, which are not included in the kit. Please purchase these separately.
