This is not quite a True Pilsner, because it is not a lager. - I do not currently have a way to make a cold lager, so this is an attempt to get close using a kveik yeast. I am using an Anvil Foundry 10.5 (120V) for this and not sparging it.

Special Instructions

1.
Preheat 7 Gal of water to 157F (per AF manual - 9# grains @ 120V)
2.
Add grains and stir to avoid clumping (duh)
3.
Reduce temp to 152F
4.
Mash (wait) for an hour at 152F (for saccharification rest - is this time optimal?)
5.
Increase temp to 170F
6.
Vorlauf (recirc) until the runnings are clear, then run off into the kettle
7.
Remove grain bin (allow it to drip into wort)
8.
Bring wort to a boil - we will boil for 60 minutes total on this timeline...
9.
0:00 - Add Perle hops addition #1
10.
0:40 - Add Saaz hops addition #1
11.
0:45 - Put chiller in to give it time to sanitize
12.
0:50 - Add Saaz hops addition #2
13.

14.
Transfer to fermenter (conical?)
15.
Pitch yeast, cover (with airlock), and store at room temperature
16.
Wait for airlock to stop bubbling (2 weeks - new yeast, I am guessing, but give it time to settle)
17.
Bottle w/ priming sugar and store at room temperature for a week or two (test it!)
18.
Chill and enjoy...hopefully
