This is going to be my second extract brew, wanted to do a belgian with an orange flavor to it so I came up with this, the color is a little lighter and the ABV is a little low for a dubbel but I'm fine with that.
I'm not sure on how long it should sit in the secondary because I've read that these kind of beers need a while to condition, does anyone have any suggestions? are all my ingredients going to work out for this brew or should I change something?
Partial boil, 3 gal for a 5 gallon batch.
Planning on fermenting at 74 degrees air temp.
Fermentables
6 lbs Alexanders Wheat LME
1.5 lbs extra light DME
1 lb belgian candi sugar amber/brown
Specialty grains
.5 lbs belgian aromatic
.5 lbs belgian caravienne
.25 lbs crystal 10
.25 lbs victory
Hops
1.5 oz styrian goldings - 60 min
.5 oz saaz - 15 min
Yeast
Wyeast belgian ale 1214
Other
Zest of 2 oranges - 10 min
crushed coriander - flameout
