I was thinking of brewing a fresh batch of a Duvel clone, and was wondering if I make some extra, could I try to convert this into another beer by adding coriander/orange peel/other (boiled to 15 minutes to sterilise) or changing yeast (to lager).
Any ideas of possible alterations to the wort that I could make to form another beer? :hmm: - ps I'm not bothered about the alcohol strength of this second wort.
Cheers,
Cwrw :drink:

I don't know about the spices but you could make a lighter belgian pale ale by just holding back on the sugar for the second.

Cheers for that suggestion. Having had a few hours to chew this over I'm beginning to think about the possibility of adding special b (10%) to the second brew with a dilution of 30% with boiled water...hopefully this will end up with a slightly lighter body and a caramel tasting ale of approximately 5% alcohol. Destined for dissapointment or promising :? ?...please advise.

That sounds like a plan to me. Go for it. :thumb:
