Notes

Saison like ferment: pitch 16-18C, then raise to max T after a couple of days. Rule of thumb seems to be: hotter more banana, cooler more clove. Max temp I’ve seen in forums though is 22 (way less than saison).

But then guy called Gordon Strong (who has a well known recipe) says he fermented constant 16.7C, actually says 20-21C is too hot! Claims you get banana/clove regardless, but additional flavours too (which he doesn’t like).

He also uses a decoction: Dough-in at 111° F (44° C) and hold for 15 minutes. Ramp up to 131° F (55° C), and rest 10 minutes. Pull thick decoction and slowly heat to 158° F (70° C), and rest 20 minutes. Boil 10 minutes, stirring constantly. Meanwhile, ramp main mash up to 149° F (65° C) and hold. Recombine, and equalize at 158° F (70° C). Rest for 10 minutes. Mash out at 170° F"

I plan a simplified step mash: 44C ferulic acid rest, then up to 67 for saccharification.
