Notes: biterness slightly high, I want to lager this beer. Styrian goldings' spiciness well accommodated by dubbel and quadrupel.

Should be not too dark, rather deep brown.
huge dark fruits, prunes, raisins, figs, dates, grapes. Slight oakiness.

Focus on the quality of candy sugar! Dark fruits come from there, only followed by caramel from malt.
Perhaps exchange some pale ale to lighten the color and accommodate more specialty malt.

Keep the grain bill simple, most of the color comes from caramelized sugar (but not burnt!). don't be afraid of long boil - 120-150 min to enrich in melanoidins.

Fermentation temp. Start at 14C, increase over 14 days to 25C. Secondary at 10C for 6weeks . Fill the south african rum barrel and age for 9 weeks. Bottle condition for 12 months.

Yielded 30L of wort at 1.084 before candy syrup addition. Efficiency 83%.

Notes after fermentation: After 15 days of primary d = 1.021. Secondary in the room at 16C. Yeast look very healthy.
after additional 10 days(17.10.2015), gravity still 1.021. Racked off to a glass carboy, brandy-oak wood added and 0.5g of potassium metabisulfite.
03.05.2016. Still sitting in the carboy with wood. D = 1.011 (check before bottling). pH 4.4. estimated 11%

Notes: Last year (2017) I used 40% Vienna and it was tasty. This year (2018) I might go with 25% Munich which will be about the same color and we'll see how the flavor profile turns out.

2018-8-2 tweaked the recipe a bit to match Helles Exportbier for a 2fer.

2019: pils + ~30% munich

2022: 15% munich; going a bit lighter with the munich
72g split between saphir and tettnang turns this into a pilsner! not a bad thing, but altering the recipe to 2g/L instead of 3 and changed to Mittelfruh. also changed munich back to ~30%

2024: did about 12% munich and was more of a pils still. planning on some test batches with 20% munich plus some late hops to get a more malty and hoppy end result and still be helles-like.

Notes: Lower steep/mash temp (148-150) should get you a lower dryer gravity

Add belgian candi syrup before the boil, taking kettle off heat. Another clone i read used D-180.

Add DME just before boil to avoid boil over.

Yeast Temps: Style suggests starting an abbey yeast at 64f up to 68f for 48hrs to minimize fusels. At 1/3 sugar break move it to 74-78f. The yeasts could increase to these temps on its own also. This is something I will attempt by moving out of my basement to warmer rooms at about 1.046 gravity or sooner. Update: Mine took about 4 days to hit 1/3 then I moved it to a 70f room.

Wyeast 1762 is supposed to be the Rochefort Yeast. White Labs WLP540 is also Rochefort. Other alternatives; Wyeast 3787 or 1214

Mount Hood is an Alternate for Hersbrucker hops with a higher AA. Reduce by about half. From .5oz to .2 oz. You could instead remove the 60min Styrian. This would keep the IBUs from overpowering the style.

Take note of higher priming sugar. Style suggests higher volume. 2.5-3 vols

Bottle condition recommendations are longer. Minimum 6 weeks, but better at 2 months.

Update: Fermentation smells like banana about 7 days in and after I had moved it to a 72f room.

Update!: This recipe works! It taste near close to a proper Trappist Rochefort. After 6 weeks aged I smell banana, its strong but sweet covers it up, its a perfect dry. Letting it age took the edge off.
