I have a wheat brew has been in a primary for one week now. I will be adding 3 pounds of dried fig to the secondary. is it possible to add dry pectic enzyme at this point? Directions say, add before the start of fermentation. add 1/2 teaspoon per gallon or 1/10 teaspoon per pound of fruit. Should I add per gallon or per pound of fruit??? I was going to pasteurized the figs in water, then let it cool. can I add pectic enzyme here? Or should I add after I rack off the fruit? I have never worked with fig, but I have read they are a high in pectin, so I figured it would be good to use. Thank you for any help! -- Lee
