I did half of the batch as a completely-spontaneous fermentation, and then the other half sat out overnight under a blooming tree as well, but also got dregs from a bunch of Drie Fonteinen bottles. Not quite oak cubes, but that's something I will hopefully get started on in the futures. I can't wait until fall comes so I can get a few more batches in utilizing spontaneous fermentation. I've also thought about doing the same for saisons come winter, skipping chilling and leaving the 10 gallons out overnight, then pitching saison yeast, hoping for a bit of wild character from the critters picked up overnight.Michael Thorpehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18308792576392626355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2265524263747985916.post-46454132857335853202014-07-10T18:31:38.581-07:002014-07-10T18:31:38.581-07:00I really like the idea of combining spontaneous fe...I really like the idea of combining spontaneous fermentation with reused cubes. I've been storing oak cubes from recent batches in vials of beer in my fridge, I'll have to give this a try once the temperatures cool down.Amoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07214141954643062330noreply@blogger.com
