Simple Saison


Bladeca

Recommended Posts

I'm wanting to do my first saison since the temp around here is getting up there. I haven't tried the style before so thought if I keep it to a basic extract brew I would get a reasonable idea of what the style is like and latter build on it. So any feedback would be good.

 

1.7kg APA can (had thought OS lager or canadian blonde tin??)

1.5kg Coopers wheat malt

200g light caramalt (steeped)

11g Danstar Belle Saison Yeast

 

That's it and let it ferment out at ambient temp which would probably be around 26 degrees.

 

I have hops and other malt but as I said I want to try the style and keeping it simple seems to be the better idea for now. So how does this look as I'm going to be chucking things in the fermentor on Saturday.

 

cheers

Glenn

Hi CSG.

I just been drinking this http://store.coopers.com.au/recipes/index/view/id/58/

But I swapped the wheat beer for rye malt and its delicious.

Sounds yum. Did you use the Briess Rye LME? unsure

 

If so' date=' have you got a pic of it in the glass?

 

My current Chinook/Nelson Saison (using pale & wheat base) is drinking better as it ages. Next time I make one, I might look to sub a good whack of the Wheat malt for something like Rye.

 

Cheers,

Hi there,

My first ever saison is currently in the fermenter nearing completion.

Just wondering what the experienced saison brewers do:  keg or bottle?

I've found a bit on other forums, mostly American, but wanted to know some opinions from brewers on here.

I'm a long time lurker on this forum, and have learnt heaps from everyone here, so thanks for that.  Just can't find much on this particular topic.

Josh
