I’ll be curious to see how it turns out for you. I am Polish, and have wanted to try one of thesestyles, but can’t commit 5gal to a beer style I’ve never tried. Keep us posted. I was going to reccommend a Belgian tripel.

Why would you have to commit to 5 gallons? I often make 2 1/2 gallon batches BIAB in the same equipment that I would have used for 5 gallons. It wouldn't be too difficult to make an experimental 1 gallon batch either although you might need some smaller equipment for that.

I thought about that. But i use a 15 gal kettle for my 5 gal BIAB batches. I do have the ability to do a 1 gal though. Still have my craft a brew kit that got me started in this maddening hobby.
