Just did our first Saison style beer. Is there a need for a secondary? If not, how long should I leave it in bottles until I drink? I know there is no exact anser, but will 2 weeks be enough or will I want to wait a few months with a Saison?
Here is what we did:
Partial Mash
WLP Saison Ale Yeast
6.5lbs light LME
1lb Belgian 2 Row
1lb flaked wheat
1/2lb vienna
1/2lb munich
Hallertau (2oz at 60min)
Saaz(2oz at 20min)
a small handfull of Fresh lemon peel, orange peel, black pepper, indian long pepper, licorice, fennel and star anise for last 10 min of boil
