Belgium christmas beer

Post by liquidman » Sun Sep 30, 2012 9:39 am

Ive just put this on to mash as a sweetish brew in time for Christmas, does it look alright? I'm going to use some recovered duvel yest and don't know what temp to ferment it at.....

Pale malt: 3800g
Biscuit malt: 225g
Home made crystal malt: 500g

Mash at 66 for a couple of hours

50g Hallertaur Mittlefruh
120g medium crystal sugar

Both in for an hours boil

1 pint started of duvel yeast

Hoping it'll be something nice in a couple of months.

Cheers

I'm currently fermenting a Golden Strong with WLP-570 which is supposed to be the Duvel yeast, I'm ramping the temperature from 18-28C over a week.

All done and yeast pitched. Going to start it at 18 and raise the temp by 1 degree a day for a week.

Tastes nice so far, fingers crossed
