Notes

Pils + CaraVienne Malt + (Special B?)
Lighten body with Maize + amber/brown candi
Current Rochefort uses wheat starch, no longer maize.
Attenuation:
With corn and sugar should be about 1/5 @ 100% and 4/5 @ 77% -> 82%
Expect OG 1.081-> FG 1.015
See sessions 4.10, 3.34 and 2.22.
This should be close: Grist, hops and yeast on target, the only issue to decide is: all special-B for colour or some (debittered) black. Picked 300g 120 MD +75g black, advice is to keep special b well below 5%
