Hey all. I got a kit for Christmas and the blonde ale that came with the kit is fermenting nicely. It came with 6lbs of liquid malt extract, but I did add another lb of light DME instead of using sugar as the instructions recommended.
It's been in the primary now for about 4 days, and am thinking about adding about 2-3 lbs of oranges in the secondary after two weeks in the primary. I'll probably get frozen oranges, but not sure how to sanitize them, or if they're already sanitized. Also, after the yeast are reactivated from the movement and sugars from the fruit, should I rack to another vessel to clear, or is it ok to bottle from that point? Any information would be greatly appreciated.
