Qld Xmas case Swap 2014- 6 Dec

[luggy]

Im keen to get in on the swap, im only doing small batches at the moment but, would it be ok to enter two differnt beers into the swap?

 

[hwall95]

Saisons ferment out pretty quickly so you could knock it off in 2 weeks and you can do them ambient. I've yet to do an ambient ferment as we are only just coming out of winter. But looking forward to doing a few of my "saazon"s (saaz hopped saison) as well as another saison I have in planning.

Belle Saison hangs around in suspension for ages. I noticed in my latest keg of saazon which has to be around 2 months in the keg I was still getting yeast settling out in the bottom of my glass. :blink:

I don't think anyone did a saison in the last swap. You're locked in now Harry!!! :super:

Alright saison it is, I'll jump back on in. Can't say it'll turn out great but have to try a new style sometime.

Nice work Harry. I had never brewed a dunkel weizen before the last swap. Nothing like jumping straight in the deep end to sharpen your brewing focus. Ha ha!!

 

[tazman1967]

Nice to meet you today Harry, you can leave a Belgian Saison in the fermenter for over a month, I "forgot" about one in the fermenter for 3 months, in the garage.
It turned out one of my best.
Belgian Saison yeast used in that brew.
Cheers
Peter

 

[hwall95]

Yeah it was nice to meet you as well Peter. I'll probably brew it next weekend or the following depending on the how the starters going (Currently smelling amazing), so it should have plenty time to sit around.

[menoetes]

Can I put my name down as a tentative swapper/attendee?

I want to do the swap but timing and transport is a problem for me (as I don't drive) tho HWall95 has kindly offered to assist with the driving. I've got a Blonde and an Yankee PA going into the FV's this weekend, either could be set aside for the swap...

 

[menoetes]

I've sorted out travel arrangements with Hwall95, many thanks sir. If for some awful reason I can't make it then at least my beer will.

[seehuusen]

I have decided to brew up a Saison, rather than the IPA. It feels like it would go better with the nice hot summer.
I've looked up a few recipes and think I'll do a slightly stronger version of Tony's Summer Saison.
I'll also be using different hops, which looks to pair up nicely with that grain bill
