If you want acidity quickly, we recommend keeping the IBU low (0-5 IBU), starting with a fermentation temperature of 70-72 ºF for the first few days and then raising the temperature to 75-80ºF to encourage development of sourness (''Lactobacillus'', ''Pediococcus''). For a slower developing beer that exhibits a rounded balance of funk (Brettanomyces) and sourness we recommend ~5-10 IBU, mashing on the high end, fermenting at 68 ºF and holding at that temperature for an extended period of time.

| Farmhouse Sour Ale || 80-90 || Med || 70-78 || Expect this blend to take 1-3 months to begin creating appreciable levels of acidity. This blend contains two farmhouse/saison ''Saccharomyces cerevisiae'' isolates, ''Lactobacillus brevis'', and ''Lactobacillus delbreuckii''. The two ''Saccharomyces'' strains will combine to create a delightful ester profile of grapefruit and orange zest, accompanied by a mild earthiness and spiciness. The two ''Lactobacillus'' strains will produce a balanced acid profile, given a suitable supply of accessible carbohydrates that remain after the bulk of fermentation has been completed by ''Saccharomyces''. Expect this blend to take 1-3 months to begin creating appreciable levels of acidity, depending primarily upon fermentation temperature and the IBU. Higher fermentation temperatures and lower (0-5) IBU will produce elevated levels of acidity. Lower fermentation temperatures and higher (10+) IBU will produce lower levels of acidity.
