Another way to get the Jester King house culture into your homebrew would be to primary ferment with a suitable yeast (Wyeast 3711 French Saison or White Labs 565 Belgian Saison work great) and then add the bottle dregs post fermentation. This type of mixed culture fermentation will take much longer for the desired flavor and aroma profile to become present. A Jester King beer will primary ferment for anywhere between 6-10 weeks, generally. Our mixed culture will take most beers all the way to a specific gravity of 1.000, which is what we call “bone dry.” I would not recommend packaging your beer until the gravity has reached a similarly low specific gravity.
At packaging, we add enough dextrose to reach an average CO2 level of 3 volumes. If the beer has sat for a while, we'll add a touch more of the mixed culture to ensure proper refermentation. We allow a bare minimum of 3 weeks for after packaging for our beers to condition and carbonate. The mixed culture will kick up some pretty crazy flavors and aromas in the first week or two, all of which will be absorbed or dissipate with time in the bottle. The most important thing to remember when making this type of beer is patience.
