I am new to homebrewing and I have made two batches from extract and I wanted to try something a little different. So I got a wheat bear kit and changed it up a bit by pureeing blueberries in the blender and adding them to the boil. That was the only thing that I changed from the directions but my wort never really reached high krausen as there was never any violent bubbling from the airlock. Aside from adding the blueberries, the only thing that I could think that might have gone wrong was that my wort was still too hot when I added the yeast. Is it possible that adding the blueberries was too much or was it more likely the wort was still to hot? Any suggestions on creating a fruity ale or wheat beer from a kit would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
