IMB Kolsch
Kölsch • Partial Mash • 6 gal
Iron Mike's Brewery: This is a family favorite. It's scaled to serve in (2) 3-gal corneys. Add strawberry extract (to taste) to one corney for one regular Kolsch and one superb Strawberry Kolsch. Let me know if you like it.

White Labs WLP029 German Ale/Kölsch
White Labs WLP029 German Ale/Kölsch
From a small brewpub in Cologne, Germany, this yeast works great in Kölsch and Alt style beers. Good for light beers like blond and honey. Accentuates hop flavors, similar to WLP001. The slight sulfur produced during fermentation will disappear with age a
Notes
The secret is to take 1 lb of Belgian (not German)Pilsner malt and toast on a cookie sheet in a 350 degree oven until it just starts to "smell toasted." I use single infusion mash, but steeping crushed grains is probably sufficient. White Labs Kolsch yeast is a must! Ferment and keg as usual. I always use 3/4 cup corn sugar per 6 gallons to prime--even with kegs. It comes out much better than force carbonating. Give it two weeks at room temperature and then chill as close to freezing as possible. Very Important: Cold condition for 30 days before serving! You will fall in love with this recipe and so will your guests.
