Glad to see this! I made a fruit beer earlier this summer. By making a puree and placing it in a secondary fermenter. When I was doing this I didn't find much information about fruit beers or how to infuse the beer. Glad to see a brewery show this process.

I have from time to time experimented with both.

I have a fruit beer that i made that was very popular with my friends but i feel as it sat in the keg the better and more well rounded it got. If i sent you the recipe is there anyway you could look at it and make any suggestions or changes to it? I feel its good but its missing something that could make it great! What I was shooting for was a hazy/hoppy beer with fruit flavor but I didn't want it too sweet and still wanted the hoppy beer flavor more upfront. It's pretty much what I wanted but has a tartness to it also. But like I said it's missing something

Very good ...as a home brewer would like to use Damsons (like plums)... Would you cook the fruit first?.....Mash temp 68deg.

Thanks for the video, nice information. I'm thinking of making a sort of tropical IPA in our micropub. Thoughts were to add frozen fruit purée after fermentation and rouse once or twice. Can you dry hop at the same or what disrupt the hop flavour/aroma? Thanks

Answering tonight on the livestream!

how do you keep the fruit puree in suspension without falling out?

Are you recirculating through the lauter pot immediately after mashing in or after an initial rest? How long do you rest the mash?

How you deal with manggo fiber? Do you use real mango juice with fiber or artificial flavoring?

Off topic, but I thought I'd ask. You said your system was originally set up as a decoction system. I'd assume since it's from Spec Mech that you had a mashkettle, and the a mash pump to xfer the mash from the kettle to the lauter tun, and then lauter back into the kettle. Did you originally have the grain hopper above the kettle, and paddles inside it? We have the exact same thing, if so. We are commissioning our system later this year and I'm struggling to decide whether I should keep it as is, or re-plumb to a single infusion setup. What swayed your decision?

@adammakesbeer

2 жыл бұрын

Yup we have the same rig. Yeah I would still go for it to be single infusion. We do make a lot of lager, but I would maybe have to be lager only for me to run a decoction system. Time is the main factor.

Yes. The sparge water comes from my hot liquor tank. I actually use a spray bottle to spray acid over the surface of the mash bed throughout the sparge. A little hands on but better than not doing it. Especially in light beers.

I've seen others with combi-tuns who just have an empty elbow above the HLT water level that they leave an end cap on except for when they add acid to acidify the sparge water. Also, assume that when you use the spray bottle that you just pre-measure the PA into the bottle, add some water, and then spray it all in? Cheers!

Hi Adam, just discovered your page wile researching fruit beers. I'm in the process (fermenting) of making my first Fruit wheat beer, and I have a decent amount of Mango Puree (going to add 18oz per 2.5 gal). Would you add it at the same time, i.e, tail end of fermentation? And when you cold crash, would you not lose that fruit flavour or am I overthinking it? Thanks.

@adammakesbeer

Жыл бұрын

Fermenting will reduce the impression of the fruit, but you will have a more shelf stable final beer. I suggest using a high quality TTB approved natural extract to help magnify the real fruit addition that you included in your beer. Thanks for the question!

Is your process for doing fruit beer similar to what someone like New Glarus does? I am a big fan of their beer and their fruit beers are really good, but they are SO sweet. But does everyone follow the same basic steps for fruit beer, it's just a matter of degree on the sweetness?
