Flanders Red
« on: January 13, 2013, 10:56:25 PM »
Based my recipe on this one http://www.homebrewtalk.com/f72/landers-fred-241728/ but increased the gravity a bit, added raw wheat to provide diverse food for the bugs and used EKG for hops. I did a 4 steps decoction mash as per Wild Brew’s schedule.  Added roeselare straight up and in the next couple of weeks I’ll add dregs from a few geuzes.  Now the waiting begins...
