Tripel Fermentation Temperature Profile?

Post by Norik » Fri May 05, 2017 7:17 pm

I'm considering doing a Tripel for a little informal competition at the end of August, but I don't have a fermentation fridge to control the temperature.

What kind of temperature profile would a Tripel need to ferment at? If it was a Saison I'd pitch at 17C, ramp to 20C, wait a bit, then ramp again to 28C until it finished then coldcrash (I use a big coolbox with water and frozen water bottles).


If I do the Tripel I'll probably use Mangrove Jacks Belgian Tripel M31 Yeast, on the otherhand could take the same recipe and use Belle Saison instead.
Litany For Beer
I must drink the Beer.
Beer is the mind-killer.
Beer is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my Beer.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the Beer has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.
