I can't seem to copy and paste from BrewSmith but I've just brewed a 23L batch of the following for the second time (the wife likes lager) and it's currently fermenting.

4.01 kg Lager Malt (3.5 EBC)
1.22 kg Flaked rice (2 EBC)
0.16 kg Munich Malt (17.7 EBC)
0.20 kg Carahell malt (30 EBC)
100g of Tettang split 1/3, 1/3, 1/3 at 90 minutes, 15 minutes and steep/whirlpool for 10 minutes at flameout

I've sent you a private message re the brew steps

Here's a good method. I've had about 65 litres so far from this method over 4 batches. 5th batch going now.

As for recipe... My favourite so far is just pilsner malt and Saaz hops.

Hi RLGMIlson, have you temperature control for your lager? A true lager needs to be brewed between 9 -15°. I'm doing a Czech Pilsner tomorrow similar to Umfana's recipe. Although I've done several lagers I've never done a Pilsner type.

If you want a more descriptive recipe than just "pilsner + Saaz" have a look at this one. Looks yummy and is on my hit list. http://brulosophy.com/recipes/may-the-schwarzbier-with-you/

Here's the quantities for my basic pils...

I think the hops are roughly in equal quantities at boil, 10 minutes and flame out. But can't remember for sure.
