Hi,
I'll be brewing up the Norther Brewer Wee Heavy kit very soon and will be adding grade-b maple syrup to the secondary; possibly some at flameout (after the boil) as well. I'm looking for very sweet and very mapley brew.
Would it be better to add it to the kettle, to the primary, or to the secondary to get a sweeter, more maple-forward brew?
I've heard that honey and/or maple syrup can sometimes contribute to a a "dry" finish in a beer. I want to be certain to get a sweet finish, and one as long as possible--not a dry one.
Any suggestions or experiences you can share?
Big thanks!
