I want to brew a flanders red. I want to either use roselare the whole time, or use abbey in the primary, then roselare in the secondary. My only problem is if I use roselare the whole time, when would I add the fruit? also, If I plan on using french oak chips, would I add the oak chips the same time as the blackberries?
I've read wild brews throughout and a good deal of other stuff, but am seeing mixed opinions. I have seen people sour the beers, the add the fruit for another fermentation. I have seen people add the fruit at secondary. I have seen people use roselare throughout, but then at which point would I add the fruit? Thanks for any insight.
