Sommerfest II
Kölsch • Extract • 5 gal
I tried this and it is an excellent easy-to-make flavorful summer beer! I brew a batch of this every summer and is one of my favorite recipes.

Irish Moss - (omitted from calculations)
Irish Moss
A dried red-brown marine algae. Fining agent to remove large proteins. Negatively charged polymer attracts positively charged protein-tannin complexes (extracted from grain husks and hops) during the boil. This action is aided by the clumping of proteins in the boiling process. Irish moss settles to the bottom of the brew kettle with spent hops and hot break material at the end of the boil.

Wyeast 1007 German Ale™
Wyeast 1007 German Ale™
Ferments dry and crisp, leaving a complex but mild flavor. Produces an extremely rocky head and ferments well down to 55F.
Notes
* I wanted an extract version of my all-grain recipe (c.f. Sommerfest Koelsch), because I don't have the time in the summer to brew all-grain. * I tried to keep the same flavor, but being extract based, the color is out of character. * The Caravienne malt, which is steeped, replaces the maltiness of Munich malt, which needs to be mashed. * I kept the 85% base, 10% wheat (Munton's Dry Wheat is 55% wheat, 45% barley) , and 5% Munich proportions. * To make a lighter beer (presumably within style guidelines) add half the extract in the last 15 minutes of the boil. * Hallertau can be substituted for the Vanguard hops, which is a more floral variety of Hallertau. * Lager 2-4 weeks.
