Have a Flanders red in glass carboys with oak dowel age now for 18 months. Jamils recipe/epic Roselare thread from the other board/etc.
Will probably force carb 5 gallons and counter pressure bottle some of that for longer term aging.
I want to fruit the other half with cherries or raspberries. Should I pitch more yeast? I'm worried that doing so will scrub the fruit flavor out with co2 of fermentation. All of the fruited beer will probably be bottle conditioned.
Would appreciate advice especially on fruiting and repitching.
flatulently,
