Has anyone used this strain recently? Only available from July-September. I figure I'd give it a go for a change, but just want to know what to expect. Can't find too much on this. Thanks!
That got drier than I've gotten it to go. Did you say you mixed it with some dregs?
Agree with you on its profile. I've always gotten a bit of bubblegum with it
3726 is my favorite saison strain, especially if I ramp up the temperature early. I usually pitch at ~70 and ramp up about 4-5 degrees a day for 3-5 days. For smaller beers I start a bit higher and ramp a bit quicker. 1.006 is about where I get it to finish most of the time, but I mash low, add sugar, and end around 85-90 deg most of the time with this yeast.
I have found that the yeast plays well with hops like Citra, Galaxy, Amarillo, Mosaic, NS, Moteuka, etc.
70% seems low for that yeast, I got almost 90% in a low gravity (1.044) pale saison
