This is the second half of a double batch brew day. Overall, not too bad of a day, I got started at around 10 am and was done by 5 pm, so 7 hours for 20 gallons of beer. Usually it takes me about 5 hours to do a 10 gallon batch, but I was able to overlap the two brews for a pretty good time saving. Both this beer and the Dunkel will lager over the winter and be perfect next spring.
10 gallon batch
21.5 lb Pilsner

Mashed with 7.5 gallons at 166F, hit 156F in the mash tun. I was aiming for a little lower, like 152F, but I didn't adjust. Adjusted pH to 5.2.
1.5 oz Magnum, 60 minutes
3.0 oz Saaz, 5 minutes
Wyeast 2124, Bohemian Lager

One new package of each, no starter.
