I brewed my first saison last weekend, and it's currently fermenting in the low 80s. I brewed 10 gallons. 5 gallons will remain as is. However, I am doing some additions to the second five gallons.
I purchased some flavored belgian candi syrups from Cascade Beer Candi Co. in Washington (very good customer service and prices, I might add). I bought a pound each of their ginger candi syrup and their Chipotle poblano chili syrup. Their recommendations is for a pound per 5 gallon batch. Here was my intentions:
4 gallons would get 3/4 lb of the ginger syrup.
1 gallon would get 1/4 pound or less of the chipotle syrup.
Does anyone have experience with adding candi syrup to secondary? If so, should I wait for fermentation to stop or should I transfer before I reach my FG?
