Hey all,
I have a trappist ale from extract in the secondary right now and I'm look for some conditioning advice.
recipe was:
13.2 lbs Pilsen LME
1 lb Caramunich
.4 lb Biscuit
.3 lb Aromatic
.25 lb Special B
.2 lb Chocolate
1 bottle dark belgian candi syrup
1.5 Styrian Goldings 60 min
.25 styrian 15 min
.25 hallertau 15 min
.25 hallertau 2 min
.25 styrian 2 min
yeast was wyeast trappist ale with 1l starter
My SG was about 1.125
29.5 IBUs
I primaried at around 72 F for as long as fermentation was pretty furious, which lasted around 3 weeks
Its now been in the secondary for about 2 months
This is what I had planned
3 weeks primary
3 months secondary
1 month bottle at room temperature
1 month bottle around 40F
Just wanted to see if anyone had any advice on this conditioning schedule. This thing is going to be a 6 month project as it is, so adding a couple months wouldn't a problem, I just want to do it right.
Thanks for any advice
