With wpl530 or wyeast3787 you need at least 50% off headspace in the first week, or use blowoff ( with the risk off loossing too mucht yeast for good fermentation )

Well too keep you all updated, I brewed the 12 recipe as a 8 ( OG1068 ) finished @ 1011 now 2 weeks into the bottle Had a first try today and it's absolutly superb, now I know my 12 will last 12 months before the next taste I have 11 gallons off the 8 to drink first:ban:

So I brewed a 11 gallon batch yesterday, decided to clone the westy 8 instead off westy 12 butt still the CSi recipe. The reason I decided for the 8 clone is the ABV, 11,2% against 8% so I can drink more often this amazing recipe:mug: Ended up with 11 gallon @1068 the Wpl 530 was going...

I had a bottle last weekend ( I botteled 7 x 0,7 ltr PET for tasting the upcoming months:mug:) I also compare it too ABT12 for I won't pay 12 to 15 dollars for a bottle of beer, mine has more flavor (dark fruits) then ABT 12 also there's a "deeper" longer lasting taste, a bit sharp on the...

Bottled my batch yesterday (1092-->1012) will brew another batch in 2 weeks

Westvleteren 6 clone ( first try ) delisious
