Mash at 64 degrees for 60 minutes, then add your mash-out water and give it another 10 minutes, vorlauf and collect in boil kettle

After draining add your sparge water and give it a good stir and let it rest for 10 minutes, vorlauf and drain to the kettle.

Chill to 18 degrees, aerate well on the way to the fermenter and pitch the yeast starter, ferment at 68 degrees for 2 weeks, move the fermenter at that point to ambient room temp for another 2 weeks,

Rack to keg or bottle and carbonate


This is a delicious fruity Saison, perhaps would have been better posting it at the start of the summer, rather than the end but it is delicious none the less.
 
Wyeast French Saison is superb yeast, and attenuates like crazy. No need to ramp temperature to 30c or add too much sugar. My saison fermented from 1.056 to 1.006 without any sugar, in 22-26c.
 
Yeah, that stuff is crazily powerful and would ferment your socks out to 1.000 in a few days.
