    I add my fruit in the secondary, my strawberry blonde is done with either fresh or frozen fruit, sanitized with 1 cup of vodka added to the fruit 3 lbs of fruit per 5gal of beer. You may want to add lactose since it will get a bit tart. Mine has won 2 awards in competitions.

      do you add the lactose to the boil? or directly to secondary

      @@filmmakingandstuff4993 when I keg the beer I will save about 2 cups, warm it up not boil just warm, then desolve 1/2 to 3/4 lb of Lactose. Chill to at least room temp, add to the keg and pressurize. Taste and adjust to your liking.

    Great job, Joshua. Been brewing for 15 yrs. You hit all the points. Have boiled the fruit/flavor additions, and used vodka, both with great success and little variance. Doing a Bourbon Barrel Quad and a Peached Cream Ale, and secondary is where the additions will occur.

    I use a good loose leaf tea that has fruit. 1oz per 5 gal.
    I made a nice mango wheat. I think adding tea to your secondary is the easiest way too go.

    They raspberries with a stout maybe good. When we were kids dad would give us a small glass of stout, lemonade and a raspberry flavouring. Was not enough to get us drunk or any kind of feeling of drinking alcohol it was more of an inclusion thing as he brewed a lot of beer .

    I like to heat the fruit in a pot to kill any bugs, and add it to secondary. Cold crash before packaging and the fruit will sink to the bottom of the fermenter, rack off the top

    I'm not a professional brewer or anything, but the brewery I work for just won Canadian brewery of the year with the help of a couple beers that used fruit puree; so it's all about how and where you source your ingredients!

Making 5 gallons of "supermarket" apple cider right now, and trolling all the beer/wine videos...lol. Cheers!

  • @fibreoptik

    This was very informative! Thanks Josh!
    I’m currently soaking 3 pounds of organic raspberries that I bought frozen at Costco, along with 2 tablespoons of homemade Madagascar vanilla extract and one split vanilla bean that I simmered on the stove for several minutes to ensure pasteurization.
    The only fear I have is that my base beer was a bit too adventurous to really showcase the raspberry and vanilla because it’s a hybrid juicy IPA x edelweiss recipe that I threw together on a whim. It came out darker / more malty than I intended. I actually don’t know how this beer will taste or what it will look like from bottle to glass. Which is at once exciting and somewhat unnerving as it’s probably the most expensive batch I have brewed to date.

    Can I add fruit to my fermenter jug after fermentation finished and just leave it for another week or so in there without moving it to a fresh vessel?

    • @joshuagarciamedia
      @joshuagarciamedia  2 роки тому +1

      I like a good Pale Ale myself, but you can do it across multiple styles. Careful with oxidation when adding to IPA or Hoppy styles.

  • @theghostofsw6276
    @theghostofsw6276 Рік тому

    I would never want to boil a fruit with anything...you will "set" any pectin that was in the fruit, and impart a haze. I would go with using fruit juices that have been treated with a pectic enzyme, and use this in your secondary, or possibly use to prime your bottles (such as using apple juice to prime your cider at bottling). If you're concerned with bacteria from fresh fruit then sulphite the juice beforehand allowing time for the sulphites to flare off. Wine makers consistently use sulphites up to 50 ppm, and wine yeasts are tolerant to them. You might also have a go at pasteurizing as well.

  • @blakefaulds
    @blakefaulds 3 роки тому +1

    Great video man! Well laid out and your explanations on point! Are you at all worried about cold side oxidation when not only transferring to a secondary but then making additions to the open secondary fermenter?

    • @joshuagarciamedia
      @joshuagarciamedia  3 роки тому

      Thank you! And no, I'm not worried too much. I try and keep as much oxygen out of the process as possible but at a homebrew level some will always get in. The fruit additions extra contribution to oxygen was negligible.

    Hey Joshua! Great video ! I’m making my first IPA now and in 3 days the first stage is gonna be finished . I wanna add mango and orange to a 23 liters (5 gallons I think?), of beer . What is the amount of fruit that has to be added and what do I have to be cautious about ? I read in the comments about oxidation ? Thanks !

    • @joshuagarciamedia
      @joshuagarciamedia  2 роки тому +1

      Thanks for the comment! Amount of fruit can depend on how fruit forward you want the flavor to be. Safe bet would probably to be about 2lbs each of Mango and orange. Orange peel can add a bitterness so you might want to peel them all completely so it doesn't mess up your hop profile.

    Does cleaning your fruits with wodka affect the taste of your homebrew?

    • @joshuagarciamedia
      @joshuagarciamedia  3 роки тому

      No, it's such a small amount and vodka is very neutral flavor that at the end of the brew process you won't be able to tell it was used.

  • @joshuabandola1336
    @joshuabandola1336 3 роки тому +3

    maybe you lost the color of the raspberry due to post fermentation oxygenation. I bet if you were to do a closed transfer and kegged it, it would have stayed red.. or you could just add food coloring i wont tell anyone ;)

    • @joshuagarciamedia
      @joshuagarciamedia  3 роки тому

    Real good video! I brew 3 gallon batches do I need to do anything special to split that up in the (3)1 gallon containers for secondary fermentation? Or just once primary is done evenly disperse it to the (3)1 gallon for secondary? Then add fruit.

    How was the change in flavor any different between primary and secondary arnt you still fermenting the fruit?

    • @joshuagarciamedia
      @joshuagarciamedia  3 роки тому

      I feel like there's a difference but for some its probably a non issue. Fermentation slows down in secondary so the sugars of the fruit get left alone a while longer by the yeast.

    • @joshuagarciamedia
      @joshuagarciamedia  3 роки тому +4

      Great Question, and there's not much of a wrong answer here. my personal preference is to go about 7 to 10 days in secondary with the fruit. I've also done as low as 4 days and once over 2 weeks (although the results weren't great after that). The best way to find the results you like is to just keep on brewing and see what sticks. cheers!
