An old favourite. You could just as well use W34/70 dry yeast. The Czech Bernard brewery uses it, and their lagers are superb.

    How do you control the mashing process? do you start at 45C, leave it there for ten minutes and then

    Sorry, useless computer. How do you control the mashing process? Do you start at 45C, leave it there for ten minutes and then continuously increase the temp to 60C, leave it there for 15 minutes and so on?

    Yes, this is what I do. It is not the proper Czech method, though. They use decoction mash. Which takes forever.
