So after my previous thread on the Wit bier, I changed it over to a Saison. Here's my ingredients list as it stands.
10 lbs. pale malt
2 lbs. white wheat malt
1 lbs. rye malt
1 lbs. golden naked oats
1 lbs biscuit malt
1 lbs. clear candi sugar (may change it to 2)
Wyeast Saison 3724
Just a few questions before I brew this one out on Saturday. Since this will be a 7 gallon batch, how much orange peel would I want to add for a nice citrus zing, without being overpowering? Also, when would I add it? Can anyone let me know if cardamom would be a good spice to throw in? I have some on hand and would like to know how much, and when, to use. Finally, I haven't used golden naked oats before and am wondering if it's good to go as it is and if it doesn't require a protein rest or something of that sort.
Though I really don't have any true noble hops on hand, let me list the hops that I do have at the moment. Perhaps someone can make a recommendation on the hop schedule for me. Sure, I could make a guess, but your input is always appreciated.
Mt. Hood, Galena, Olympic, Liberty, Hallertau, Tettnang, Saaz, Centennial, Nugget and of course hop suey.
