Lambic
« on: May 02, 2013, 08:11:48 AM »
With this one I performed a traditional turbid mash as per Wild Brew schedule with a 3h boil which gave the wort a deep amber color.  I "aged" my hops by baking then at 190F so that hopefully my IBUs will be half of the estimate.  I’ll also add dregs from various lambic along the way.
