- Having some fermentation issues
- Despite high temps the fermentation was stuck at 1.035 (Wyeast #3724 is notorious for getting stuck)
- Sample pulled was murky (lots of yeast still in suspension) and very sweet
- On August 14th a second yeast starter was dumped into the carboy containing a different saison yeast, Wyeast #3711 French Saison
- As of August 27th is is down now to 1.027 - still quite a bit high
- Sample pulled was still murky and overly sweet
- Still need to wait, but getting to be a long time now sitting on the trub and yeast cake; keeping it too long like this could start to produce off flavors
Saison de Deux Médecine
- Transfered to secondary on August 2nd
- No more yarrow was added
- Split into 2 carboys - 2.5 gallons in each
- Brett has not been added yet; waiting for Wallonia to be ready b/c I'm splitting the package of yeast between the two
- Crystal clear and had interesting vegi/asparagus flavors
- Planning to bottle the first half this weekend (8/29) - can't wait to drink!!
