Notes: -BIAB water retention is 0.0625 gal/lb. Start with 4.65 gal water
-Mash normally, 152F for 60-75 minutes
-Boil for 70 minutes following the hops schedule
-Slowly add the Belgian Candy Sugar with 5 min left in boil
-Ferment starting low (62F) and raise 1F each day after fermentation starts for 2-3 weeks. Seems like this will encourage clean fermentation and release of ideal flavors, plus ferment all available sugars.
-high carbonation, if kegging go to 3.5-4 vols. If bottling, go to the limit (3 vols is spec limit)
This benefits from lager-style aging, but can be consumed immediately. Age for 12-16 weeks for best results per forums.
Brewed July 2022: OG was spot on, FG went all the way down to 1.001 for nearly 12% beer. Opened one after 3 days in the fridge - prominent alcohol taste, very fruity, not as dry as I hoped. It is certainly bright, strong, bold, fruity. Should also have spice notes.

Notes: Brewer Notes: The most likely place for this brew to fail is during fermentation. Overpitch yeast, add yeast nutrient like Superfood or Yeastex, control fermentation temp and remove from yeast as soon as fermentation is finished. Start fermentation at 19°C and then turn up to 25°C @ 1.074 SG (usually about 48 hours into fermentation). You will probably not hit 1.020 AE so do not worry if fermentation stops as high as 1.032. Yes, you did read the OG correctly. I’d suggest maxing out your mash tun with grain and sparge as little as possible. If you aren’t able to get that much sugar out of the mash you may boil for longer and/or add a 50/50 mix of DME and Dextrose Corn Sugar to the boil to hit your OG target. Disclaimer: This is a very difficult and expensive beer to brew at home. |
