Love to see so many lagers being brewed in the brewtube space! They’re really hard to beat, especially in the summertime! Cheers Dennis 🍻

[@CityscapeBrewing]

I've made a point to brew more this year. Did the Mexican lager, this German Pilsner, and have a Vienna Lager conditioning... So check back soon!! 🍻👍

@@CityscapeBrewing always happy to! Brewing a festbier this weekend, can’t wait to have that on tap for football season!

[@ElementaryBrewingCo]

Looks great, Dennis! Cheers 🍻

[@CityscapeBrewing]

Definitely in my top 10 beers I've brewed I think. Simple and delicious! 🍻 Vienna lager conditioning now with the same yeast trub. Stay tuned!

well im off soon to making another pilsner. the long journey of waiting ive got some extras stashed in the freezer i need to use. weyermann pilsner malt and weyermann floor malted and a dash and a half of that. using magnum, hallertau, and spalt. never used spalt before so here goes nothing! also 34/70 the first time ever using it.

[@CityscapeBrewing]

Love 34/70 yeast. It's a beast and does a great job. Sounds like a good recipe to me! Let me know how it turns out! 🍻

[@paulschroeter4987]

[@curtpick628]

i can never catch it in the videol haha but for the escorbic acid do you add it in the main mash or... i rewatched the video again and i seen the escorbic acid addition. i guess lagering a beer for so long its a good idea.

[@CityscapeBrewing]

I add 4 g of ascorbic acid in the mash, after stirring in the grains, for most beers. It helps preservation and prevents oxidation. Does it matter if it's a lager or ale, but very important for a certain styles like hazy IPAs and West Coast IPAs that are very hoppy.

[@paulschroeter4987]

@@CityscapeBrewing ok thank you. ill remember that. and yes i know about the hoppy ipa. ive done a few and more then enough times they get oxidized and brown. once i made an ipa and when it was time to drink i opened it up just to smell dead rotting fruit smell it was bad!!

[@paulschroeter4987]

how many packets of yeast?

[@CityscapeBrewing]

I used 1 packet of yeast. You can see that at the 4:20 minute mark in the video! 👍🍻

[@preuc3367]

you said it turned out spectacular before tasting it.. i guess you tasted it before..

[@CityscapeBrewing]

Yes, I had a couple samples prior to making the video. Haha.
