Flanders red ale

[Ljubavnemolekule]

hi, can you tell me if ph 3.3 is ok for flanders standing 3 months in the primary fermenter after adding wild yeast?

I'd say that's about where it should be. Maybe 3.2-3.25.

Best way to determine is to just taste it though. No point hitting a number of your taste buds don't agree.

Thank you for the answer
yes, that's exactly the number! so it's not too early for that ph? Since this is my first flanders I don't really understand the acidity. will it go even lower, because I wouldn't like it to go
Here is the picture of the ph.

There's no way to know whether it will drop lower. It might.

As far as whether it's too early.. ??? Yes, possibly, unless it already has a desirable flavor profile, in which case it's perfectly fine. There's no specific recipe or timeframe for success or failure when dealing with wild microbes.
