White LabsWLP570Belgian Golden Ale
From East Flanders, versatile yeast that can produce light Belgian ales to high gravity Belgian beers (12% ABV). A combination of fruitiness and phenolic characteristics dominate the flavor profile. Some sulfur is produced during fermentation, which will
Notes
Ferment at 72 degrees, ramp up to 78 degrees. Notes: I do not know if they spices were ground or not. Personally, I usually coarsely grind coriander by putting it in a zip-lock bag and pounding it with a rolling pin or heavy glass. It cracks the seeds, but does not make a powder. I do this about 30 minutes before the boil to ensure that the spices retain freshness. The brewer discussed the importance of obtaining fresh spices. Also, make sure to obtain the bitter orange peel, not zest or sweet peel. WLP570 is historically a poor flocculating yeast. Just FYI. The brewer also tried this recipe with WLP500, WLP530, WLP550, and harvested yeast from a Rare Vos bottle. The only other yeast that was close was WLP530. Even then, it was a noticeably different beer. To use Ommegang yeast, step up dregs from their wit.
