I'd like to use another Belgian malt, but there's only Chateau Abbey or Special B available at the brewstore. I tried Special B on this grist but the EBC got too high, I'd need to use such small amount that it would not make any difference at all.

What you think?

Also the temperature for the yeast. You might not get the phenolic character at lower temperatures.

On top of that, be mindful that belgian yeasts are diastaticus so follow a rigurous cleaning and sanitation afterwards lest you end up with dry beers for eternity.
