So I am planning on brewing a hefeweizen on Friday. I will be using peaches and apricots for flavor. From what I've read I will be using 7.5lbs of peaches (1.5lbs per 1 gallon of beer) and 4lbs of apricots to boost thw peach flavor. My plan is to brew the wort and once it is done allow it to cool down to about 160 degrees. At this point I will toss in the fruit and let it ait for up to 30 minutes. Once the time is up I plan on placing the entire wort into the primary fermenter with the fruit still in then I will pitch the yeast and allow everything to ferment.
Is this the best process or woild you recommend another method. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
