Yeast<br />
-----<br />
yeast can be from a Jolly Pumpkin beer or<br />



White labs wlp 550 then add Wyeast<br />
5112 - Brettanomyces bruxellensis<br />
5335 - Lactobacillus<br />
5526 - Brettanomyces lambicus<br />
to the secondary.<br />



.15 American oak and .15 French Oak<br />
The oak cubes are boiled for 30 sec in the microwave to pull out some of the flavor and aromatics, also to soften the oak flavor. Pour off the water and add just the oak cubes.<br />



I reused the oak cubes from my Bam Bière clone but if you like, you can using the instructions above.<br />



For this recipe I was worried about percentages so the amounts for the grain is odd feel free to round up if you like.<br />



I did not have any Dark Munich so I added .7% Melanoidin Malt.<br />
So if you have Dark Munich, drop the Melanoidin Malt and use 8% Dark Munich.<br />
