I have made several pilsners in the last 2 years. by far, I have been the happiest with the recipe I got here from the wiki for Ron "Bluesman" Price's Ringler Pilsner, "A classic example of a German Pilsner"
100% Continental Pilsner
2.75oz Hallertau Mittelfrueh at 60
1.2oz Hallertau Mittelfrueh at 1 min
1.75oz Hallertau Mittelfrueh at 0 minutes
WLP 833
1.052OG/30.2IBU/3.0 SRM finished around 1.010 for 5.5% ABV after a simgle infusion at 149° for 90 minutes
I have made it with both 833 and 830, I preferred the hoppiness of the 830, the missus liked the maltiness of 830.
Super simple recipe, great tasting results. Thanks again to Ron for posting it in the wiki
edit to add: SO when you say too little hops, are you talking about quantity or overall IBU? The recipe above calls for 5.7oz hops but only a little over 30 IBU. What are you looking for in yours, remember, I am no pilsner expert, just know I enjoyed this one
edit again. Just checked Ron's recipe and he calls for mash temp of 151°
