366: St. Bernardus Uses Modern Tools and Ingredients to Stay True to Historic and Classic Recipes
Manage episode 426146460 series 1755672
Carrying the weight of history and expectation poses a particular challenge for some European brewers, but nowhere is that more apparent than in the world of Belgian brewing. How, in the face of changing technology and consistently variable ingredients, does a brewer stay true to the ideas behind the classic recipes that underpin the core beers that their brewery produces? Over the past two decades, these are exactly the questions that St. Bernardus brewmaster Wouter Dely and sales and marketing manager Marco Passarella have had to face.
In this episode, they discuss:
- Adjusting classic recipes to today’s modern brewhouse reality
- Working with barley that varies year-to-year by adjusting step mash times and temperatures
- Using Belgian candi sugar in brewing abbey-style beers
- Maintaining healthy fermentations using techniques like drauflassen
- Fostering ester production by limiting head pressure in cylindroconical tanks
- Using different temperature glycol in fermenter jackets through the course of the fermentation
- Time as an ingredient in brewing
- The mechanics of bottle conditioning
And more.
