How to brew a Belgian Quad

A couple of friends join me as I brew a Belgian Quad. We decided since this beer had such a large grain bill, that we would get two beers for the price of one and do this thing Parti-gyle Style. This technique is when you continue to sparge so that you collect another 5 gallons of wort. The first beer will be your larger gravity style and the second will be a much lower session style beer. Our session beer turned out to be a Belgian Amber (at least that's what we will call it).

Just brewed a quad today, and discovered this post. This is the first I've heard of this "parti-gyle", nor did I have the setup at the time, but it makes a lot of sense.
I'll keep it in mind for next time I brew a big beer, as 2 beers for the effort and grain bill of 1 is a smart move.
Thanks for the tip. Subscribed.

Great video mate. I do love a good Belgian and extra beer is always a yes.

Great content, Ricky. I just subscribed. Belgian Quad is one of my favorite styles. This one is on this list to brew. May tryout your recipe.
Cheers 🍻

I will be posting an update this weekend. The smaller beer is ready and the Quad is moving along nicely.
