Hey guys, have a Belgian Abby in primary ready to be transferred to secondary.
I want to secondary on blackberries, but don't know how much blackberry puree to use. I have three pounds at my disposal. I also have some homemade strawberry sauce (about a cup and a half) that I am considering throwing in*. Opinions?
Or if anyone thinks this is a great way to ruin a good Abbey, do tell!
Used this recipe:
(Some will notice this to pretty much be the clone brews recipe for Affligen Tripel.)
* Made by the "cover strawberries with sugar and wait" method. Would boil down first to sanitize.
