Notes

=======================================
12/31/2019
updating recipe for brewhouse efficiency from 60 to 69. will live with the abv boost. changing to 90 min boil because of the pilsner malt.
=======================================
(no date)
Version 2 : this time im changing the malt base based on a recipe from byo. https://byo.com/recipe/tripel-the-light-fantastic/ to try to get a lighter color. leave the yeast and hops the same. will ferment slightly higher this time to try to get some more spice clove banana going on. need to boil for 90 mins with pils malt. original recipe says to mash at 148 for 45 mins.
===================================
8/15/19. this came out a bit darker than I wanted, deep golden / orange. next time i would like to aim for light, yellow color. it was lacking much spice and belgian character. also the bottles were slightly undercarbonated for the style. like probably as carbonated as most of my bottle conditioned brews but i wouldve liked it a little more bubbly.
=====================================
7/23/19. Measured FG 1.010 so adjusting attenuation up to reflect. This will be about 8%. Need to reevaluate mash temp and time.

I cant believe I didnt take any notes on this prior to now...
