Notes

https://beerandgardeningjournal.com/go-gueuze/

An easier turbid mashing method comes from a suggestion by Frank Boon. He suggests mashing in at around 86°F using as little as 1 quart of water per pound of grist. The mash should then be stirred and the milky wort should be run off and boiled for a few minutes. In the mean time fresh water should be added to the grist and a step mash performed of ones choosing. After reaching the 140°F range the boiled milky wort is added back to the mash to raise the temperature to the sacharification range. Then the mash should be allowed to rest and undergo sacharification. After this the wort should be run off and the grain sparged. This produces a large volume of liquid and is one of the reasons for the suggested 5 hour boil.
