“… TELL-TALE BIG GNARLY BUBBLES …”
In an experiment, I’m brewing a saison using both the Belgian Saison strain as well as The Brett B strain. I made a 2000ml starter and pitched both vials in and let it run for 24 hours after which I crashed it out in the refrigerator. I pitched them both at 12:00 midnight. At 7:30 AM, the Brett was already trying to build a pellicle! Of course, the violent fermentation of the Saison yeast wouldn’t let it set up, but the tell-tale big gnarly bubbles of the pellicle were trying to hold on. Can’t wait to taste this one…
