Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone has successfully cloned a Leffe blonde using biab?

Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone has successfully cloned a Leffe blonde using biab?
Just had another taste of my Lefty Blond and I tell u what, after a bit of age in the bottle, it's VERY close to Leffe Blond. And that's with the 1214 yeast.
Another thread you are tempting me to use the 1214 in Nick , must be pretty good!
Dredging this post up from the past...Nick JD said:I've got this fermenting at 20C ATM.
18L
3.5kg Wey Pils
100g BB Caramalt
100g Special B
30g Caramunich 3
300g Wheat Flour
500g Dextrose
8g Galena 60
8g EKG 15
1214
When I open the fridge door the whole laundry smells like a Belgium Abbey.
Chimay use a bit of EKG late apparently, but I can never taste it when I put it in there. Not a big fan of EKG's weirdness, me. Like nana purfume.stakka82 said:Question - I'm going with triple six's recipe - well close to, and am going to use EKG. Single addition for bittering or another at 15 mins or so for the ibu?
Nick JD said:I did the Fly Blown recipe once - didn't taste anything like Leffe Blond. 1762 is the wrong yeast.
Use 3787 or 1214, Pils Malt and a touch of caramunich or special B for colour, styrian hops to 20 IBUs (or even EKG).
I have brewed the Fly-blown Belgian recipe several times and I'm a fan.AaronP said:I agree with Nick. I made TDA's Fly Blown Belgian once. It's a bloody nice beer, but it's not like Leffe Blonde.
