Notes

Simple recipe with a basic strike/sparge combination. Open fermentation to avoid huge problems I have had in the past with belgians overflowing. 2 pounds of sugar are added after primary fermentation is going.

I ferment at about 75-80 for 3 days and will kick it up to 85 after about 2 weeks.
