Yeast and Fermentation / Re: Wyeast 3711 French Saison

3711 gives off much more spiciness than fruitiness. It also leaves a nice mouthfeel. I like it and will use it again for a saison.

^^^^this +1.  Do not be afraid of warmth...great yeast to use during the dog days of summer.
Will bring your wert down to nice dry levels.

Imagine what Brazilians must think of "American" beer since 99% of what they get is Bud/Miller/Coors.

Xingu is Very good Beer IMO

+ ungabagady on the mushroom compost!  It was the primary component
of my contrived soil mixture for the raised garden. You will love it.
I also added sand and bags of potting soil and some floorsweep (clay).
The attempt to keep the garden soil seperated from the field bind weed
has been a profound success and the reason for building the raised garden.
We are challenged with frost until june....at this time I am going to plant
some Snow Peas maybe a few carrots.  Wait wait wait wait....june....plant squash
and other frost intolerant short season plants.

If you add carb. food for the yeasties, and get no joy, You can always add
a bit of fresh neutral liquid yeast like eau de vie...and finish the job.
