I made a 1/2 batch of this one. The only change I made to the recipe was to soak the raisins in rum for about 2 hours.
I fermented at 20 degrees for 4 days, there was an initial lag in fermentation beginning of 42 hours.
After 4 days I increased the temp to 24 degrees and after another 4 days to 26 degrees.
After 21 days I decanted into the secondary and chilled to 5 degrees for a week. Then bottled and back into fridge for a week at 22 degrees. then after 16 days I chilled to 5 degrees again.
Initially the bottles had little CO2 but I turned the bottles upside down for 2 days then back upright for a week and there is now a nice amount of CO2 but the head dissipates quite quickly.
The brew however tastes like nectar. It stands up well against a number of Belgian Dubbels I have tried. I would certainly make this again.
