Notes

90 minute boil with hops, adjuncts and nutrients as needed. Chill to 64F. Oxygenate slowly through 0.05 micron diffusion for 90 seconds (we’re after 9-10 ppm O2). Ramp primary from 64F to 78F through 7 days. At 1.014 rack off primary yeast to secondary and cool to 55F. Hold for 5 days+ until the FG of 1.013 is reached. Dump yeast a second time, lower temp to 40F and hold for 6 weeks. Bottle using heavy Belgian bottles or Champagne bottles. Prime with 31g/gal Golden Candi Syrup and re-pitch 500ml Westvleteren strain stir-plate. Bottle re-ferment for 14 days at 76F. Cellar for 12 months.

On point. Tastes like a very close St Bernardus 12. Costly brew and 2 mashes needed so a long day of brewing.
