So - I just FINALLY kegged mine today. I did seven days in the primary and five in the secondary after I racked on top of the raspberries. I moved to a tertiary and it's probably been in there for about a month to a month and a half. Work really gets in the way of brewing!!!!
My OG was 58 and my FG was 14. So, I should end up right about 6.0% ABV.
While siphoning I filled up a small cup and took a taste. It tasted amazing! I can't wait for this to carb up.
Also, FYI, I just used frozen raspberries and let them thaw. I didn't do anything special as far as boiling them, or using any additives. Sounds like some people may have had issues, but I'd tend to think that was equipment sanitation?
I use StarSan and give everything a good soaking before anything comes in contact with ingredients or equipment. Knock on wood, but I've had good luck so far!
I'll be back in a couple weeks to give an update after this is carbed!
In the meantime, tomorrow I'll be brewing a Killkenny Clone. I've made it before and it was a such a big hit, it will be my first re-brew. I think it's so good that I intend to keep one of my five taps always dedicated to it!
