The recipe can be done using just a single infusion mash but should add some extra dextrin malt to help increase the body that is usually provided by the triple decoction.

Notes

Just brewed 45 gallons of this Pilsner Urquell clone with the St. Paul Home Brew club for Grand Old Day. Did a triple decotion mash with rests at 132F, 144F and 158F. Was the perfect color and crystal clear from the decotion. Has a great malty hoppy aroma...wonderful.
