so, i have two bottles of Timmermans Oude Gueuze that are reported to have both yeast and bacteria in it.
i'd like to put them to good use and brew something with it
but i'm not sure how to approach it. looking for some tips, hints, pointers, guidance here. rather than me just pitching the dregs in the primary, and hoping for the best
this will be for a small 1 gallon batch.
i can do both all grain or extract, what would be a simple fail safe recipe for my first attempt at this style?
do i pitch from the bottles? or should i build a starter?
pitch it in primary or secondary?
how long should i let it ferment/work/age/rest in the carboy before bottling? how long let it sit in the bottle before it's drinkable?
cheers!
