Notes: Yeast: Wyeast 3711 highly aromatic, peppery, spicy and fruity. I've heard online that citrus dominates. Enhances the use of aroma hops. Silky and rich (and dry?) mouthfeel from high attenuation.

Malts: Will use some Pilsen malt (not traditionally the biggest fan) to appease the style but will mix it with some light malt extract. Honey notes and pronounced maltiness from the abbey malt which will add complexity normally associated with Belgian ales. Carafoam for more body and head retention.

Hops: I would like the hops to be fruity and have citrus notes but I don't want it to clash with the yeast.

Centennial (60/40/0) Clean bittering. Floral and citrus aroma.

Amarillo (40/15/0) Floral and citrus.

Galaxy (Dry Hop) Citrus and passionfruit. Aroma quite intense at first, but mellows with age.

Brew day: May 4, 2014. Steeped 0.5 lbs of carafoam and 0.5 lbs of abbey malt for 30 minutes @ 74C.

I didn't see the late addition option in the fermentables section so I didn't incorporate it into my IBU calculation. I had originally shot for 25 IBUs...now I have 57. Oy vay. However, the calculation is based on adding the extract in the last 10 minutes. Mine was added more like 15 minutes, so the 57 IBU is more of a maximum. I still plan on dry hopping with 2 oz of Galaxy, but hopefully this isn't a hop bomb Saison. Now it doesn't fit BJCP guidelines, oh well! La Saison d'Oppy Amour.

Signs of fermentation 12 hours after pitching!

05/16: measured FG @ 1.012 - exactly where I want it! Took a sample and initial thoughts are that it has a spicy aroma and taste with a dry and bitter after taste. Hopefully dry hopping with 2 oz of galaxy hops for 10 days will impart some fruitiness to the aroma.

Took another sample on 05/29 and it tasted super sour. Maybe from all the citrus-y yeast and hops, especially the Galaxy in the dry hop? Hopefully it isnt an infection.

Bottling day: 06/03. Assuming 4.4 gallons to be bottled. Current temp of 23.2 degrees celsius. I did cold crash, but not for long, and it only got down to 16/17 degrees, so ill drop to 21. Shooting for 3.0 volumes of c02. Boil 5.13 oz of corn sugar.

Overall expectations: The first bottles will be overly citrusy, perhaps too much so, since the yeast is aroma-inducing. Suggest aging for a while to mellow out if the citrus/floral is too intense.

Sample on 06/13: First taste after a week in bottle and 24 hours in fridge. Overly sour and bitter, but this is not a bad thing. I like it. Michelle loves it. Very sour/citrus on the nose. Sharp, up-front bitter notes when tasting. Hopefully mellows well with time.

06/26: 3 weeks in bottles. Zero head. Could be dirty glass. Citrus aroma has subdued, but still present in taste. Tastes warmer (more alcohol) now.

A French-style Saison with large hints of fruit, including citrus and passionfruit, that makes this an easy-drinking beer. Perfect for those hot summer days.

08/07: 3rd last bottle - woah, foam immediately gushed out of the bottle as soon as I opened it. Bizarre. The others weren't overcarbed. I realllly need to mix the priming sugar with the beer next time I bottle. I can't think of another explanation. It's hard to taste anything other than the prickliness of the carbonation. Still rather spicy. At least its alcohol.

Notes: Trying out Scott Janish's recommendation for "soft crashing" before dry hopping. Ferment completely including a brief diacatyl rest before crashing to 55, then DH for 2 days. Then cold crash.

Notes: Heat 8 gallons of water to 160F. Add BIAB bag to keggle and clip it to edges.

Add total grains and stir to eliminate any dough balls.

Check temp, its should be around 154F, a little lower is better than too high (160F is max) if temp is too high drain some of the liquid off and add back to the grains and stir, keep stirring until you reach mash temp (154F).

Cover the keggle with a lid and let it sit for 60 minutes.

Raise temperature to 170 and let sit for 10 minutes (Mash Out).

Remove grain bag and squeeze the bag to extract more liquid. No need to squeeze all liquid out, just give it a few good squeezes.

Bring the liquid (wort) to a boil and add hops per the recipe. This is a 60 minute boil.
