2L starter with WLP-568

Smells amazing the last 5m of the boil. I have not tried it yet, but I think this is definantly going to be a great tasting saison pretty close to Karbach's Barn Burner Saison. Will keep everyone updated!

Any update on how this worked out?

Bump!

 

[Joe9216]

This was an amazing saison. Great balance of the hops and the spice. It was close to the karbach, but I liked this brew slightly better.

 

[Joe9216]

I also fermented this very warm about 82-85 F with a brew belt.
I've actually brewed this twice more since the original post. It's definitely in my lineup now.

Final Pour

There was a decent head at the beginning, but trying to get the light just right to show how clear this brew was, the head dissipated.

Thanks for the update! How did you carb it? Would you recommend a higher carbonation?

 

[Joe9216]

I bottle carbed with 3.6 Oz of corn sugar. My last batch I used 4.2 Oz and it carbed up a lot better.

This looks really tasty, and dead easy! Couple of questions tho:

1) How much water did you steep your grains in?
2) Was this a full boil?

Thanks man!

ETA: One more question: what's a good sub for the Saphir hops? I can't seem to find em...

 

[Joe9216]

I did a partial Boil of around 4 gallons starting. And steeped in the same amt.

I got my saphir from Northern Brewer.

You could sub in some more Hallertau if you can't get ahold of any saphir.

Many thanks man! I'm trying to get this all at my LHBS, and they have everything but the Saphir, so Hallertau it is!
