Anyone used the Omega Yeast 028?
Looking for info on taste, aroma, flocculation, fermentation time, and attenuation. I'm planning on brewing a Belgian Tripel this week (recipe below) and wanted to see how other people perceived it. It's somewhat difficult to find much anything on this particular yeast. There are a couple blog entries, but not much. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
