Essentially, making a 5 gal batch of saison(20IBU)
Pulling 1 gal of the second runnings aside to sour wort(innoculate w/grain).
After 3days, returning to the primary.
(a)no heat and let the IBUs impede further souring
(b)heat to 160deg, cool, return to primary
Of course you could pitch a tiny bit of yeast to the 1 gal and blend after both primaries are done, but I thought this would be simple, a bit more organic and time efficient if there are no major detractions.
Anyone have any thoughts?
The goal would be just a tinge of sour, but I'd be happy with any level of sourness.
