Hi there
I've got a saison recipe bought from a shop:
Ingredients:
Tooheys dry lager 1.7kg
Briess Bavarian wheat malt 1.5kg
25g liberty hop pellets
25g cascade hop pellets
Danstar belle saison yeast
Instructions:
Simmer the wheat malt in 3L of water for five minutes, adding half the liberty hop pellets for the last minute. Then turn off the heat and steep for 15-20 minutes. Strain into fermenter.
Empty lager can into fermenter and stir to disolve
Bring volume to 21 litres with cold water, pitch yeast at 25C
On day five add the remaining half liberty and cascade hop pellets to dry hop (doesn't say how long)
Help!
After a bit of research it looks like I might get better results by increasing the boil volume. I have a 20 litre pot.
Is anyone able to suggest how to rejig the recipe to accommodate a bigger and longer boil?
Thanks!
