Saison
We made the saison tonight using Northern Brewer's kit. They spec the OG out to be 1.056, but ours came out to be an even 1.040. Even worse, we tried to use a mesh filter to strain the trub and ended up having to stir everything up to get it to drain properly, innoculating it with god knows what.
Oh well, best we can do is wait and hope. Our Tongue Splitter is finally starting to taste okay, but nothing like the Sierra Nevada Celebration-alike I was hoping for. None of the beers have tasted as good as I had hoped, though, so there's obviously something missing in our process.
