Anyone done the Euro or American Lager?
Just ordered some flaked maize and rice and fancied the American but with a few more hops.
Cheers

Hi!I've just put another one on yesterday and I used ASDA cornflakes (I also used some table sugar so I'm thinking of calling it a breakfast lager :lol: )

I did the American lager last year, tasty pint, mine attenuated but still tasted quite sweet. The hop additions are spot on in the recipe.Anyone done the Euro or American Lager?

Looking forward to hearing how you get on. I plan to do a Greg Hughes lager soon but unsure of what one.
I prefer European lagers to US though.
If it all goes well, can you let us know your process? Haven't made a lager before and there seems to be a fair few different methods.
Watch out when using breakfast cereals they are fortified with added iron which can give a very strange taste when used in large quantities.
At my HB club they made several breakfast cereal beers where the cereals made up about half of the grist and all of them were ruined by the strong metallic taste from the iron in the cereals.
