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).
