Notes

Malts: Weyermann Floor Malted Bohemian Pilsner Weyermann Floor Malted Bohemian Wheat, Weyermann Light wheat or CHÂTEAU WHEAT BLANC Flaked Oats Weyermann Acidualted Malt

Brewing notes: - Added 200 gr flaked wheat before sparge. Brought to boil, then cooled to 35C. 1.053 OG (about 46L split between two plastic carboys) Adjusted the PH to 4.5 with 80% lactic acid. (about 1,5 tbs in each carboy for me) Added content of 6 capsules of Probi Mage L. Plantarum to each carboy. (60 bill cells)

2 days later: Pitched 3 packages of rehydrated Belle saison, 1 ts yeast nutrient and the rest of a starter with TYB Lochristi and Brussels brett blend I had going, between the two carboys.<br />


6 weeks later: Racked over sliced, red bell peppers in a glass carboy. (450 gr/l) Takes about 45 red bell peppers for 20 liters of beer. Important to choose the bell peppers with a dark red color. They are supposed to be juicy and crispy, not soft and flabby. Those are flavorless compared to the juicy and ripe ones. Rinsed, removed the seeds and the white before slicing up and adding them to the carboy.<br />


4 months later: Bottled with 6,5 gr table sugar per liter. (1.004 FG)<br />


Would probably let the saison yeast and brett rock out a bit next time, making precursors before souring with a starter of L.Plantarum. This batch aint that old yet, but I would love some more yeast and brett character in these type of brews.
