Tripple the problems

Sun Jul 02, 2006 9:42 am

Anyone have a Belgian Tripple recipe that they are proud of? I don't and I wanted to brew one tomorrow in the AM.

Thanks,
Darin

So I don't have a tried and true recipe but I do for a Golden. For a Tripel, I'd just swap some of the Pils for Munich or Vienna malt. The key is a good Belgian yeast that YOU like. I prefer 3787 fermented around 72F.

Something like:

Thanks, Danno. I really appreciate it. I already have the 3787 ready to go on two stir plates. I'll let you know how it turns out...
