  1. Drinking some Tree Beer, turned out pretty well. Tree flavor is mild but present, some nice esters from the wild yeast, smooth mouthfeel from the flaked barley.

  2. Granddad's Saison, fermented with wild yeast captured from juniper berries foraged on Grandad's Bluff near La Crosse, WI.

    It has a really nice fruity character, some funk in the aroma, and really low phenols (maybe none but I don't trust myself in this regard). Overall, I'm very pleased with how this beer turned out.

  3. Wild yeasties are all happy this morning and ready for the brew day! Hive came from my bee hive (comb, honey and bees). GrandDad came from juniper berries my wife snagged at Granddad's Bluff in LaCrosse, WI. The unlabeled is my 'abbey' culture that originally I caught from my neighbor's raw honey back in 2013.

    I'll be brewing a Honey Tripel (thanks to all who voted in the poll!) for the abbey, and Saison for the two new recruits.

  4. Brewing up some oat saison today!

    First wort hopping with homegrown Glacier hops, will finish with homegrown Tettnanger and Mt Hood. I'll be splitting the fermentation among my local wild yeast, Ebbegarden kveik, Marem berm and 34/70 lager yeast.

  5. I baked 4 loaves of sourdough bread this morning. I was flabbergasted to see that I hadn't baked any sourdough loaves since last November - more than 5 months! I know there was was a focaccia in there somewhere, but still, no actual loaves of bread.

    Anyway, I still know how - they appear to have come out well, though none have been sliced yet, so we'll see. But they do look nice 😆

    The dough:
    flours:
    * 70% King Arthur Baking Special Patent Flour
    * 25% Breadtopia Organic Wholegrain Rouge de Bordeaux wheat (milled with a Mockmill 100)
    * 5% Breadtopia Organic Wholegrain Rye (milled with a Mockmill 100)
    74% water
    25% liquid levain (100% hydration)
    2.1% Kosher salt

    Overall hydration ~77%

    Process:
    Autolyse the flours for 2 hours. Add levain and do Rubaud-method hand mixing for 5 minutes. Rest dough for 30 minutes. Add the salt and do Rubaud-method hand mixing for 5 minutes. Rest dough for 30 minutes. Perform 1 set of strong stretch-and-folds. Rest dough for 30 minutes. Dump dough onto countertop, stretch as large as possible without tearing. "Laminate" the dough by folding it over on itself multiple times. Let rise in container for 45 minutes. Perform 1 set of coil folds. Let rise another 45 minutes. Perform a 2nd set of coil folds. Let rise another 30 minutes. Perform 3rd and final set of coil folds. Let dough continue rising for another 40 minutes. Turn out dough onto countertop, divide and pre-shape. Let rest for 20 minutes. Final shape into batards, placed in 8" / 20 cm bannetons. Final dough temp 77 F / 25 C. Cover with plastic bags and cold-retard in a 36 F / 2 C refrigerator for 18 hours.

    Bake:
    Preheat oven and Challenger Bread Pans at 550 F / 288 C for an hour. Reduce temp to 475 F / 246 C. Mist loaves with water and cover, baking in enclosed baking pans (with steam) for 20 minutes. Remove the covers, reduce heat to 450 F / 232 C and bake uncovered for 25 minutes
