So I made a batch of wheat beer that I plan on being Peach Wheat ... After 2 weeks in Primary, I racked onto 5lbs of peaches to sit for another 2 weeks before kegging ... My question is, the fructose in the peaches seems to have started a second fermentation ... How will this work out...

But would adding it to the secoundary or even during kegging a few weeks before drinking work? or Does it have to be added during brewing to work out???

Ok because Lactose is Non-Ferm Sugar ... What would happen if you added a little to a nice Chocolate Stout in the Secoundary for a few weeks? ... Do you think it would just sweeten it up a little or would it not work and add an off taste??? Just trying to play around and see what I...

Ok stupid question time ... If I want the same Guiness Stout Nitro head ... Do I just carb up my Stout on 100% Nitro ... Just fill my CO2 tank with Nitro ... Or do I need both Nitro and CO2?

I want to kick up my Chocolate Flavor on my Double Chocolate Stout ... I Added some Coco at the end of the boil already ... But want more :rockin: What would be the best thing to add to my secondary when I rack it ... Coco Nibs? Chocolate Chips? Baking Chocolate? Coco extract? :drunk:

Ok ... so I have been waiting a while to try this beer ... so today I found a pub with a few cans ... Don't get me wrong it was a GREAT stout, nice taste and mouth feel ... However ... Chocolate, I got NOTHING ... Very very disapointed in that part ... It was not much more then a Guiness Clone...

Do you always Sparge with 168-170 F. water? ... Sorry for the stupid question ... Just learning about AG and seems like every thing I read says to use this temp range. (Guessing it is to stop the enzyme process)

New to BeerSmith ... I have a recipe I created and want to now adjust it for efficiency % so it will adjust the grain amounts I need to buy for my Grainbill. (I want to buy a little more grain to make up for lower efficiency) Right now I have it set to 4 lbs of pale and 4 lbs of wheat at 72%...

Do I need to heat the extract to santize it before adding?

So I have a stout that is almost done fermenting ... I was wondering ... Could I add some Vanilla extract when I keg it to give it some vanilla flavor? If so how much would you add to a 5g batch? (I know most folks add two beans to secoundary - but I thought about this after the fact)

Any one got a AG Cherry Wheat Beer Smith Recipe they would like to share :)

If I am going to set and forget my keg for 1 week on 10 PSI ... Do I still need to Prime with Corn Sugar? ... I know if I am force Kegging I don't have to ... Was not sure with Set and forget. :drunk: Also should I add some Honey for head retention ... if so how much?

How much Cocoa Nibs would you add to a 5.5G batch? And how do you sanitize them before adding? (Heat)?
