White Labs WLP820 Octoberfest/Märzen Lager
White Labs WLP820 Octoberfest/Märzen Lager
This yeast produces a very malty, bock like style. It does not finish as dry as WLP830. This yeast is much slower in the first generation than WLP830, so we encourage a larger starter to be used the first generation or schedule a longer lagering time.

Brewed this weekend. I had a problem with fermentation getting started. Used a White Labs #WLP820 Oktoberfest/Marzen yeast (my brewstore doesn't carry WYeast), and it was apparently too cold in the garage (52 degrees) for fermentation to get started. I moved it back inside yesterday, and I've got a nice, bright, white foam coming out of the airlock.
Almost forgot

Original Gravity was 1.061, which is closer to recipe than anything I've gotten when brewing from a kit.
FG?

Primary fermentation seems to have slowed/stopped, with a gravity tested last night of 1.023.
Bottled this weekend

Final gravity of 1.014, 6.169% ABV.
Yum.

Tried the first of this yesterday. Nice deep straw color, high carbonation, and a beautiful bright white head. Tastes pretty good, too! My wife proclaimed this "the best beer you've made yet". Mission accomplished!
