All Grain Fruit Lambic homebrew recipe. This homebrew recipe uses the following ingredients: Golden Promise - UK, White Wheat - US, Spelt Malt - DE, Torrified Wheat - US, Honey Malt - CA, Aged Home-Grown Hops, White Labs WLP644 Sacch "Bruxellensis" Trois Homebrew Yeast, White Labs WLP650 Brett Bruxellensis Homebrew Yeast, Goodbelly Lacto Homebrew Yeast.
Forgot to record that tart MI cherries (bought fresh at a farmers' market, and then frozen) were pureed, mixed with water, and boiled before being added around 6/3. There were probably 1.75 lbs of cherries total, but only a portion (maybe 1/3 to 1/2) were added to the fermenter due to limited available volume. Still, the color was changed to a pale rose hue, and the cherry flavor is definitely noticeable. Entered into the For What It's Wort competition held by Destihl, Little Beaver, and White Oak as a Fruit Lambic.
Brewed 5/15. OG 1.055, BRIX 13.5 with ~5.5 gal yield. Roughly 5 gal transferred to carboy with Sacch (double starter built from aging pure pitch), Brett (starter built from aging vial along with multiple bottle dregs), and Lacto (single Goodbelly shot) all pitched at once. Cooled to 85* before pitching, then set in dining room to ferment at roughly 80* room temp. Both WLP strains call for up to 85*. Remainder of wort stored in mason jars for wild yeast capture.
