hey everyone.
Just finishing up the Fantome clone recipe from Beer Captured. After primary fermentation they call for 1/2 gallon raspberry/strawberry juice mix to be added into the secondary with 5 drops of pectic enzyme then rack the beer from the primary on top of this mixture. (The pectic enzyme helps to clear the beer.)
Do I need to worry about the store-bought juices? I'm fairly sure they're pasteurized.
I have powered pectic enzyme - how much should I add - they state 5 drops. Would 1/4 tsp work?
Thanks!!!!
PS The beer was tasted last night in primary and tastes like a great tripel in the making! Very nice indeed.
