Ok.. So I had a bunch of raspberries and I decided I was going to throw them into a short batch as an experiment...
So I had a 3G batch of a basic wheat and I added some raspberry syrup (cooked down raspberries with brown sugar) and honey.
I bottled way later (so I think I had a full ferment.)
I took the bottles to bottle carbonate in my hot room (this is where I crank the heat for my summer wheats - 76 degrees). Long story short - a capped bottle was leaking so I uncapped it - big boom and slow gusher, but very impressive CO2 push. Is this more normal with fruit or a byproduct of the heat in my hot room?
seems like the beer is way dry now - so I wonder if I restarted the ferment.
