What if i were to do this as partial mash and steep aromatics and then use wyeast 3864....unibroues yeast? Any possible advice on temps and primary secondary would be appreciated!

Sorry...here it is 8 months later and I just now noticed your question. That said...yes, partial mash would work fine, and was how I first made this recipe before I went all grain. Use all the grain you can mash and use extra light DME or similar for rest of grain bill. I use the cheapest grain sugar...European sugar is typically from sugar beets, not cane sugar, so no need to buy cane sugar. I don't secondary...for a Tripel I primary for 3-4 weeks, then keg or bottle. I'd suggest fermenting in the mid/low 60's...Since Unibroue yeast is no longer available, the Westmalle strain is very nice - it's WLP530, Wyeast 5787. In both cases (Unibroue or Westmalle), keep it cool 62-65. You'll get a full yet restrained Belgian character. That's my taste. Don't let your temp get up much past 68 or you'll have to age the Tripel for quite a while to smooth out the character. Once again, sorry for the delay and cheers!
