Hi all,
Tomorrow I'll be attempting my first partial-grain mashing with fruit - blueberries. I've got some wheat malt extract and 1/2 pounds each of Munich and wheat malts to steep. I was planning on throwing the crushed blueberries in the last 10 minutes of my boil, and letting them sit with the wort in the primary. (does this sound reasonable?)
Does anyone have a general guideline as to how much fruit to add to such a beer recipe? I'd like to have the blueberry taste, but not overly so!
Thanks in advance!
