Carafa Special II (Weyermann)
413-450L Weyermann® - A German dark de-husked malt for authentic German dark Lagers such as Dunkles and Schwarzbiers. Can also be used and experimented with in other styles where a more mellow roasted grain flavor is desired. Carafa® is very similar to a debittered black malt.
Recipe is another take on B. B had no real body and wasn't smokey/roasted enough. Altering the steeping grains to see if we can get a fuller body and more roasted flavor. Everything else will stay the same as much as possible.

Similar to the hoppy lagers I've done in the past, but this time, I'm adding some dark malt to try to make a black IPL. Rather than use 3oz of acidulated malt like normal, I'm using 5oz of Carafa II.
