Looks pretty sweet I ran across this one researching a Tripel recipe.

With the 1# of Wheat in there, does it still come out fairly clear? I'm not expecting crystal clear since I'm going to bottle condition my tripel but I don't want it to look like a Hefe either.

I just brewed a very slightly modified version of this today. The hydrometer sample tasted wonderful. I forgot to take a look at what kind of efficiency the OP got, and adjust accordingly, but I ended up around 1.071. I gave it a long thin mash, so I expect it to finish pretty dry. There were a few modifications, but it shouldn't be too different.

7.75lb Belgian pale and 3lb Marris Otter instead of 7.5lb and 3.25lb respectively. I also used a little extra Hallertauer at the first addition instead of 1.5oz EKG. The EKG I got were a little stonger than called for, but not enough to completely reduce it to 1oz.

All in all, I think it should be a good one. This is my second tripel this week. The other is loosely based on La Fin du Monde.

Wow, after only a week, it's dropped from 1.060 to about 1.010. It was likely a little carbonated, so maybe a little higher. I added the candi sugar today. It should be 1.073 overall OG. There was such a thick sticky krausen head in the fermenter, this is going to be good I think.
