Hi there, I finally got to taste part of the batch of Kalīs Blonde Ale recipe. I made 5 gallons with Safale US-05 and the other with Saflager W-34/70.

About the part of the brew I fermented with Saflager W-34/70, my wife and me we both agree that the diacetyl is a bit to high, you can taste it quite strongly. Is this how the recipe is supposed to be, I fermented it just as asked in the recipe, or is there a problem with my fermentation process?

For now I am into my third batch, just making Kalīs recipes, as I get used to making my own brews.

Thanks in advance for your replies...

What temp did you ferment the W-34/70 one at? How long?

What temp did you raise to do the diacetyl rest at the end and how long did you hold it there?
( See the recipe / instructions here: http://www.theelectricbrewery.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=25429 )

Did you lager after all was done? What temp? How long?
