Notes: After the flame out hops, then whirlpool it down to or below 180 and add the steeping hops for 30 mins. This will keep the bitterness down and the juiciness up It's important to add the first charge of dry hops at high krausen (whenever that is for you)

For the first set of dry hops, (listed here as 1 day) add the hops 1 day after active fermentation begins
For the second set of dry hops, add the hops after removing the yeast/racking and keep on for 2 days

Notes: Can sub honey for the cane sugar if you want a touch of honey character to complement the malt flavors.

French Strisselspalt hops for the late addition would be good as well.

Lots of possible yeast choices for Biere de Garde: Can use a cool-fermented hybrid strain like Kölsch or Alt (German Ale), a Belgian Ale strain fermented on the cool side (don’t want too high esters and phenolics, but some), such as WLP 515 or WLP 570/Wyeast 1388, a farmhouse strain like Wyeast 3726, or Wyeast 3725-PC (Biere de Garde), WLP 072 (French Ale) or WLP 073 (Artisinal Country Ale) would be ideal... if you can find any of them. Additionally, can use a lager strain fermented on the warm side.

Lager for 1-6 months, if you can wait that long!

Notes: Mash at 150F for an hour. FWH added as boil approaches 160F.
Add 0 min boil hops and let stand for 45 minutes. Aroma hops added during chilling as temp approaches 160F.
Drop the temp Pitch and Ferment at 68F for the first two days, raising to 70F over the next two. When krausen begins to fall, transfer to co2 flushed dry hops in keg. Purge headspace a few times, put a few psi on the keg and let fermentation finish out. 10 to 14 days total. Cold crash and push out any trub, then force carb. Should be really tasty in the next 5 days. Fresh is best!

Notes: This recipe makes a dry, bitter, and hoppy saison, and can also serve as a solid template for further variations. See suggestions below.

Mash Schedule for BIAB

Because of the relatively large proportion of spelt in this recipe, I typically do a cereal mash. The process is quite straight-forward for Brew in a Bag, but may require some modification for other mashing regimes.

1) Crush spelt separately to consistency of grits. Bring to a boil in a large saucepan with a few litres of water (subtract this from the volume of your main batch, or take it directly from the liquor in the main kettle). Keep at a boil, stirring to prevent scorching, until it forms a thick porridge: usually 15-20 minutes. This stage can be done prior to brew day, with the cooled spelt porridge stored in the fridge till required.

2) Heat main mash liquor and dough in with grist and spelt porridge, aiming for an initial temperature of 131F. You may need to break up the spelt porridge with your hands if you stored it before use. Keep at this temperature for around 15-20 minutes. [Optional step: you can also include an earlier rest at around 113F. This may aid with lautering and possibly increase phenolics from any brettanomyces strains.]

3) Raise mash to around 145F. Keep at this temperature for 40-50 minutes.

4) Raise mash to around 154F. Keep at this temperature for 20 minutes.

5) Raise to 168F. Mash out and lauter. Top-up with water to reach your desired pre-boil volume. Proceed with boil.

Fermentation:

Cool beer to around 65F. Oxygenate, pitch yeast, and allow to freerise. (In the summer, I would keep it in my fermentation chamber set at 70F for 24-26 hours.)

Variations:

This recipe provides a good template for variation. The spelt gives the beer a full mouth-feel that stands up well to both hops and acidity.

As it stands, the recipe makes a fairly bitter, hoppy beer. I find it ages gracefully if you add a small pitch of brettanomyces (e.g. bottle dregs) to secondary or at bottling: as the hops fade, the brettanomyces character will gradually become more prominent.

I have varied the grist for this recipe in a number of ways, all with good results. Some suggestions: - replace some of the pilsner with 5-15% Vienna or Munich. - replace some of the pilsner with 15-30% of another base malt, e.g. pale ale malt, Golden Promise, 6-row, etc. - add an adjunct in the kettle or post-boil. I have added both honey and Candi Syrup to this recipe. I thought the former worked particularly well.

Try adding an element of acidity to the beer; depending on your palate, you may want to dial back the bitterness slightly if you do this (I do not). - I often blend in 10-25% pale sour with this beer. The fullness from the spelt provides a nice balance to the acidity. Depending on your final gravity, you can do this in secondary or at bottling. - Add flavour at bottling, e.g. I have made a tea from hibiscus leaves and added it at bottling, which provided a nice tartness along with brilliant colour.

Notes: A nice, light, yet deceptively strong IPA. Very good mouth feel, plenty of citrus from the Pilgrims and a good aroma from the EKGs.
