Ive done this and topped the pumpkin with some brown sugar to carmelize. Baking it brings out the armomatics and gives a nice flavor. Then treat as a 60 minute addition in a bag. Strain though when you put into the fermenter. And dont be surprised if you lose a lot of water to the pumpkin...
Great, thanks for the info! That was what I was unsure about. I have muscavado and some spices along with the fruit, and was unsure if I should add the addition time. Ill just put the ingredients that I believe them to be expecting.
Im entering a beer into the fruit beer category and on the entry form it asks for special ingredients and brewing techniques. What all should I include? Ingredients and their schedule in the boil? Priming sugar? Date of brew and bottling? Just confused on what all to include. Thanks for the help.
