MMMMMM...not done,but I can tell this is gonna be awesome.3 lbs peaches & A bottle of extract!!!

Itll be fine.....just drink the beer .:fro:

Yeah...well I hate taking beer from my bucket,what do ya say to that? I did buy a beaker, but it wasnt deep enough:mug::fro:

Primary fermintation is pretty much done. Tonight I will remove the peaches from the freezer,puree and GENTLY stir the peach into the fermentor 3LBS. I really have a good felling about this!

Thanks for the help!! much appreciated!:mug:

Ive just cooked up a hefe..I plan on putting about 3 lbs of peach puree in the primary after initial ferment is done,let that rip a little. move to carboy for a week or so. Then at bottling Ill put in a little bottle of :fro:peach extract,just to make my point......The peaches will be frozen...

Should I drain out the syrup/juice and then freeze?..Or just remove all of it from the can, freeze it and then puree?

If I puree canned fruit,and then put it in the secondary,should the puree be boiled?would 3 lbs of peaches and a bottle of peach extract do the job?:fro:

should the fruit be put in the secondary after fermentation has taken place?

BUMP to the top

Is that standard procedure? using frozen fruit? do I really need sanitize the fruit? Im slightly confused to be honest. The oregon brand is in a can, so I assumed I could simply use another brand and puree it. Are you saying I should boil the peaches before I put them in the secondary? Thanks

So Ive been reading several threads pertaining to peach hefe's, so I decided to make one. The one I thought sounded good was the one where pured peaches were used. I couldnt find the oregon fruit brand pured fruit so I decided to just get the del monte fruit halves. I am planning on blending...

Use a sterile spoon,:fro: scoot the junk over and put the orange in the liquid,no biggie!

That happened to me too!...Dont worry your beer will be geat, mine is ..ENJOY.:fro:

fourth post...I say the airlock is a good tool for determining fermintation.Unless of course you have a leak in your bucket?For some reason I will just trust that the yeast and water and sugar are going to behave like their suppose to.when the bubbles slow so has fermintation?Why all the hate...
