Hey everyone! I was interested in trying to make a Framboise. I've never made one before, but I found a simple recipe online that I thought I could try. Here's what I got:
6-7 pounds light malt extract
1/4 pound crystal malt
2-1/2 cups raspberry puree (added to primary)
1 ounce boiling hops (Hallertauer, Saaz, Tettnanger)
10 cups raspberry puree (added to secondary)
yeast
This recipe makes 5 gallons. It seems simple enough. Is there anything else someone could recommend I add or change?
I don't really know much about hops; is it really important that I use one of those three, or can substitute something else and still be ok? For yeast, I was going to use some Windsor brewing yeast since I just happen to have some sitting around.
Also, since I'm using fruit, would it be beneficial to use pectic enzyme?
Thanks a lot!
