Giving the new hop Belma a run today.

Making a Saison after preliminary character reports say Oranges and suited to Saison.

I had farmhouse ale already in a starter so why not.

I'll be interested to hear your results Tony, I can't remember the last time I brewed a Saison.

Yeah i am busting with interest :)

When i rub it in my fingers, the yellow stickyness left on my skin smells like cascade mixed with fresh dried orange peel.

Time will tell and with temps of over 30 deg forecast for the next week........ the Farmhouse Ale yeast will have no problems doing what it does best!
 
I'm most interested in how the Belma turns out.

Second batch of the Acerola Tarwe is no chillin' on 200gm of the fruit right now before getting introduced to W3711 tomorrow and another 1 kg of the cherries at secondary, first batch will be kegged up tomorrow - still undecided on filtering, blending in eight days possibly with a fresh addition of the fruit.

A major clean of kit tomorrow before brewing a Galaxian Pale Ale on Thursday nite. ;) The chooks have been missing two brews a week.

No starter for the wheat, just pitching straight from the smack pack, and i'll be fermenting 20c + for banana/bubblegum.
 
Just knocked out ~50L of a Porterish style.
Looks a lovely dark brown with a juicy red hue.

Been trying to get useable amounts of specialty yeast up and figured this was the easiest way.

Filled up two mash tuns with grain and made a no sparge doppelbock (1.100) and a second runnings dark saison (1.065). Used the yeast WLP830 German from a Helles I bottled/kegged yesterday for the doppelbock and Whitelabs Saison Blend for the Saison. Estimated 70% efficiency overall so not too bad. Hope I end up with two interesting beers.
 
Getting things ready this afternoon for a brew day tomorrow.
