    Wyeast 3711 French Saison

    Oh I'm sure it will ferment. Interesting thought; this is probably the strain that can do the most beer from a smaller brew system. My system produces just about 5 gallons of 1.055 into the bucket - that's stretching the surface tension - but 1.030 I could probably do 8-9 gals!

    Wyeast 3711 French Saison

    Perhaps one could do a first / second runnings batch and try both.. How low did you get it to ferment on the 4 percent abv saison?

    Wyeast 3711 French Saison

    Seems everyone is making big beers with this strain - has anyone tried doing a smaller variant? If you did an OG of just above 1.030 you would probably end up just under 4.0 ABV if you gave it some time and I believe that is how the original style looked back in the french days..? (That said...

    All wheat beer - with unmalted wheat?

    So it has been discussed a couple of time that making an all wheat beer is not an issue if you can handle the sparging. As my ambition is to use as much local produce as possible and I actually have my own unmalted wheat - here is my question: What do you think about making a beer with 50%...

    Printing at Kinkos; Sticking with Milk

    Question though; I store my beers in the stone cellar (common in sweden, a couple of hundred years ago these were used as refrigerators). Around 8-10 degrees and very damp, I'm sure the milk would create mold patterns?
