Yeah, you're right. I guess I was going to supplement some of the munich base for vienna because I don't think I have enough munich to cover 90% of the grain bill. Might just brew a vienna lager.

I try to remember to post my most recent attempt which turned out fantastic. I'm very pleased with it, and so is everyone else that has tasted it.

Looking forward to it!

Ron isn't it on page 3 of this thread?

Paul...that would be the one.  Thanks for the reminder!

Sorry for the confusion...

One change was made to my recipe on page 3 of this thread. The water profile was cut in half.

Here's the actual profile used in the recipe:

Ca - 60ppm
Mg - 2.5ppm
Na - 14.3ppm
SO4 - 9.6ppm
Cl - 5.3ppm
HCO3 - 127.2ppm

I'm surprised to see you did a protein rest.
