Mike,
Great recipe :-).
I didn't mention water so we all should brew one and
to compare water profiles throughout the Twin Cities.
I'm pretty sure I used pre boiled Minnetonka Chalk Soup (tm)
but I would like to try Minneapolis city water (my favorite
brewing water) some time.
I used a Brewtek Wit yeast for the Sherlock's wit.
Here is an idea. Brew 20 gallons of wit using Mike's three sasion
yeasts. Brew 20 gallons of sasion with your 'wit' yeast starter.
If the yeast isn't too beat up, brew some tripel.
Enjoy a Belgian winter!

Below is a Wit recipe for Rick's Belgian recipe collection.
I did find a couple of mine on mnbrewers.com under
"Recipes" but they are geared toward a specific volume.
50% pils malt
25% malted wheat
20% unmalted wheat
5% flaked oats
OG 11-13 Plato
15 - 17 IBUs of continental hops (EKG, Saaz, Styrians, ... think Weizen)
0.75 grams/liter coriander
0.33 grams/liter bitter orange
wit yeast (brewtek makes a great one, White Labs, YCKCo, ...)
Feel free to use all malted wheat or all unmalted wheat. I like the
mix. Malted wheat gives more body and mouthfeel than the unmalted
wheat but remember this is a summer lawn mower beer.
George Fix mash schedule (40C, 60C, 70C) or single step.
Drink in two weeks.

Sorry to say, I do not know. I do know that a champagne yeast can eat a
lot of sugar - leading to
a dry cider. It may be purely attenuation ... Anyone out there with real
wisdom?

A number of folks have asked for this, so here it is. The last time
I posted it was July 2000. This recipe (and its variations) have won
a number of gold medals, most significant being The Spirit of Belgium
2000.
For yeast I split the batch and use three separate yeasts. I use
White Labs WLP550 (La Chouffe like), WLP565 (Dupont like), and WLP570
(Gulden Draak like). The are all good. They make three different
Saisons.
Warning: don't increase the amount of spices! You could cut them in
half and still taste them, you could quarter them and still taste
them.
24 gal. @ 1.060 OG (= 1440 pts)
42 lb. malt @ 28 pts/lb/gal (1210 pts - 89% by wt - 83% by GU)
5 lb. sugar @ 46 pts/lb/gal (230 pts - 11% by wt - 17% by GU)
32 lb. Pils Malt (71.42%)
5 lb. Munich Malt (11.9%)
5 lb. Wheat Malt (11.9%)
2 lb. Cara-pils (5.95%)
14.5 gallon Mash H2O (boiled to remove bi-carbonates)
10 gm CaCl
10 gm CaSO4
Mash Schedule - single decoction:
mash in 145F
pull decoction, raise to 158F for 20 min, boil for 20 min
mix back to the main mash and rest at 158F for 45 min.
or
you could just go with a single step infusion mash at 158F for 90 min.
25 gallon sparge H2O (boiled to remove bi-carbonates)
10 gm CaCl
10 gm CaSO4
2 hour boil
5 lb. Candi Sugar ~230GU @ 1.046 pts/lb
40 gm coriander
35 gm dried bitter orange peal
1.5 oz Northern Brewer @ 9.2% - 70 min.
6 oz Saaz @4% - 40 min.
6 oz Saaz @4% - finish
Total = 23 IBUs

I would consider helping but after tasting those two entries, am a
little bit leary! What type of location are you thinking about?
Someplace "not-downtown?"

Greetings all.
Saturdays judging of Belgian strongs went pretty well even though we
were a little short of judges. We have one flight of 10 to finish up
before we can do the 2nd round to determine the winners.
So, we'll need a location/time and 4 judges for the last flight then a
we'll have a final round of the 12 best beers to take care of.
I'm tied up Sat and in training till 5 mon thru thurs. Sun afternoon
would be good for the final round. Let me know if you can help out.

I just got more spam from majordomo(a)thebarn.com for
those in a position to do something about it.
