The recipe looks very good and it will be my next brew.
What do you mean with "1 each"?
How can i convert it to grams?
Thanks

Toombstone • 06/20/2016 at 03:44pm
Hi Nim, I hope you like it. After reading lots of books about traditional Saison beers, I designed by recipe to use numbers of fruits instead of grams of fruits. The recipe calls for the zest of 2 oranges & 2 lemons. These fruits do give a aftertaste, so the larger fruits you use the longer that taste will remain. Hope this helps. P.s. I tried 1 of each fruit originally but it was not strong enough so I changed it to 2.

Nim • 06/20/2016 at 07:41pm
Thanks for the quick response.
I will probably brew this beer on Saturday, and i will let you know about the results.

That brilliant Nim, I'd really love an honest review - even if you think it can be improved some way. Regards, Rob.

Hello .. I want to make your recipe .. in the Mash the calculation is 3 to 1 of water? ... l PH of the water you controlled it ... you made three steps of Mash .. 55c..63c and 68c .. and then washed to 78 .. right?
Greetings from Uruguay!!

Hi Gaggio, the mash is 4.464 kilos per lire of water. Yes that mash schedule is correct, but it is easier for me because the Braumeister has a built in RIMS (Recirculating Infusion Mash System.
