Matt Miller outlines a ''three stage fermentation'' process on his blog article [http://sourbeerblog.com/understanding-brewing-blending-lambic-style-kriek/ Understanding, Brewing, and Blending a Lambic Style Kriek] <ref>[http://sourbeerblog.com/understanding-brewing-blending-lambic-style-kriek/ Understanding, Brewing, and Blending a Lambic Style Kriek. Miller, Matt. Retrieved 1/24/2015.]</ref>. See the article for a much more detailed process. Matt was also interviewed about his process by James Spencer on the [http://traffic.libsyn.com/basicbrewing/bbr01-22-153stepkriek.mp3 BasicBrewing Radio podcast]. In summary, his process is as follows:
# Produce a low hopped wort (see the [[Mixed_Fermentation#Standard_Method|Standard Method]] above).
# Age for 6-18 months, or longer if desired.
# For the last two months of aging, fruit, spices, and/or oak can be added directly into the fermenter. Also consider [[Blending]] with other sour beers.
