    Peach Jalapeño Kettle Sour

    Seems like it’ll work in about 3 days per the chart.

    Peach Jalapeño Kettle Sour

    Ok. I also used WLP677 Lacto for souring, anyone know about how long it should take to start dropping the ph?

    Peach Jalapeño Kettle Sour

    If using fresh peaches that have been frozen for a kettle sour, do you need to heat pasteurize the fruit prior to using as well? Also how much jalapeño should we use for a small hit of it?

    Adding fruit purée

    When I add my Apricot purée to my kettle sour Belgian Blonde should it be in a secondary or can I keep it all in my primary.

    Blended vs Cut up fruit

    How is it more of a mess with finer chunks or purée? I’m using Vintners Harvest Apricot purée.

    Fruit addition and cold crashing

    I’m gonna let it sit on the fruit for at least a wk depending on how active it is based on what everyone is saying. Also, the OG was 1.060 and I pitched Imperial Flagship 1.5 wks ago and it’s still actively fermenting. I don’t think I’ve had a beer ferment this actively for so long, which isn’t...

    Fruit addition and cold crashing

    It’s a sour, not a fruit beer but thanks. Hopefully someone else will know.

    Fruit addition and cold crashing

    I will definitely of course. But only needing to have it on fruit for a couple day, do I cold crash during that time or after. It can ferment out prior to adding fruit.

    Fruit addition and cold crashing

    I’m brewing a Kettle Sour Belgian Blonde that’s gonna get an addition of Apricot purée and from what I’ve heard u only need it on the fruit a couple days or so. With that being said should I cold crash during that same time frame as well, otherwise it would be more like 4 days on the fruit since...

    Good Belly use for kettle souring.

    Good Belly use for kettle souring.

    How much is half a carton. The ones I got were a 4 pack of 2.7 oz shots each. I used all 4 and got to 3.8 in 72 hrs but mostly above room temp cause I didn’t have a way to keep it warmer and I did not pre acidify. Hoping that with fermentation it’ll drop a little more and then I’ll add my fruit.

    Good Belly use for kettle souring.

    Ok. The shots came in a pack of 4 that were like 2.7 oz each.

    Good Belly use for kettle souring.

    It’s been at about 90 F for a little over 48 hrs and I used 8 oz of the shots. I’ve got one 3 oz shot left but not sure if I should use it. I’ve also got lactic but wasn’t sure about using it since I already used good belly.

    Good Belly use for kettle souring.

    So I used 8oz of good belly in about 6.5 Gals of wort and the ph is at 4.0. It’s been a little over 48 too. Should I use the remaining 3 oz of good belly or just be patient. Also can I use lactic to get the acidity down after using good belly

    Fermenting a kettle sour and an ale in the same fermenter?

    Yea only one chamber so I want to ferment em at the same time if possible.

    Fermenting a kettle sour and an ale in the same fermenter?

    I’m a bit behind on brewing and was wondering what thoughts there were out there in regards to fermenting a kettle sour and an ale in the same temp controlled fermenter. I was figuring that since you kill the rest of the wild yeast of the kettle sour in the boil, that you eliminate contaminating...

    Blended vs Cut up fruit

    Does it matter if you purée or blend your fruit if u r adding it to a fermenter? Most people cut it into chunks, but does it make a difference in the outcome of the beer?
