Hey guys, I'm doing my first strawberry wheat beer right now and I have a question about using real fruit or using a puree for the stawberry flavor. I've been reading about using real fruit (on the order of 1#/gal) but my secondary is a glass carboy with a small neck. The real fruit might be a bit problematic for this reason especially if I use a strainer bag like I've been told is good. I also don't know the best way to sanitize the fruit before using it.
What recommendations do you have, real fruit or use a puree? If real fruit, what's the best way to sanitize. If puree, how much should I use?
I appreciate the help.
