“BE PATIENT”
I’ve used this beer in numerous batches as a 100% brett fermentation. The first one, a flanders red, took forever to get going and even longer to finish – almost six weeks. But I kept washing the yeast and using it in successive batches and I’m now in the 6th generation. The first few fermentation’s produced very fruity (pineapple flavor?) beers, but progressively they got more and more phenolic. They also fermented stronger and stronger each time – the last batch only took one week to take a 1.056 saison down to 1.008. Two weeks and it was down to 1.004. This has now become my favorite yeast and I want use it in everything.
