Please Hammer, Don't Hurt 'Em

AKA don't over-crush your grain...please.

Gose

I had my first Gose beer the other day, and I knew from the first sip that I'd have to brew some.

Notes on a Brewday: Saison Regalitarian

Distressing over the fact that most of my beers are either Belgian-inspired or IPAs, I decided to purchase a sack of Castle Pilsner malt. I should declare an aside here - this is currently my favorite malt, in part because it makes a great base for any pale Belgian-style recipe, and in part because it always yields perfect runoff at the proper crush - no vorlaufing needed.
