Register / View: Low Oxygen Brewing: Improve the Quality and Flavor of your Beers
presented by John Watt from Stout Tanks and Kettles
Many brewers have tried to create lagers with that “true German flavor” but never actually achieved it. Another way to describe the elusive taste is “fresh, lingering grain flavor.” Brewers try decoction mashing, triple decoctions, melanoidan malt, flaked barley, and so on without success. If you want to make authentic continental lagers, then a proven method is to eliminate oxygen from your brewing process starting with your brewing water and unground malt and ending with wort in the fermenter with less than 1 ppm of dissolved oxygen. This is called Low Oxygen Brewing.
