Belgian Tripel Recipe All Grain

Here is a good recipe for a Belgian Tripel.  If you brew them, and you aren't a Trappist Monk, you can't call it a Trappist Ale.  However, if you are a Trappist Monk, you'd already know how to brew a Trappist Ale, right? 

Anyway, here is a recipe for a Belgian Tripel.  I'd like to know what you think.

Mash at 152 Degrees F for 90 minutes minimum if you are doing a single stage infusion. Add the sugar to the boil in the last 10 minutes but before adding the Cascade hops.  The sugar will need to be stirred and desolved well.
