Here's the Plan:
Sour a full mash. Split half off as a pretty legit "Berliner-Weiss" and then bump up the other half with some LME and turn that into a Half-sour Saison.
7/13 1pm
4.5# White Wheat Malt
4.5# 2 Row
.5# Rice hulls
1.25qts/lb @ 152 deg(actual variance 148-153deg)
Allow to cool to below 120deg and pitch .5# additional 2row.(in reality, after I pitched and readjusted the probe therm, it read 126deg, so I pitched and additional .25# after it hit 108deg)
natural cooling took approx. 4hrs
After folding in additional malt, I pressed plastic wrapped aluminum foil to the surface and discharged some CO2 into the headspace before placing lid on the container.
Hold temp at 110deg for 60-72hrs. I'll be shooting for a pH of 3-3.5
Will continue posting as it goes...
1st Post and 4th brew overall!
