I'm a huge Belgian fan,always loved my quads.. and I think I'm ready to give one a shot for my 20th brew. Here's my plan, could use some reassurances and any advice anyone may have...
Mashing @ 150* for 60 min.
10lbs Belgian Pils
5lbs Belgian Pale
1lb Special B
Planning a 90 minute boil
2lbs D-180
.75oz Magnum @ 60
Have two smack packs of Wyeast 3787 Beer Smith is estimating an OG of 1.091.
I brew at my parents house as I live in an APT and don't have a whole lot of room. Since I can't keep an eye on it and am worried about blow off, I'm planning on splitting the 5.5 gallons into two buckets and pitching one pack of yeast into each. After fermentation is done, I'll rack both buckets into a carboy and let it sit for a few months to mellow out before bottling and/or kegging.
