If it's an experiment, there is no right or wrong way to try it. If it were me, I'd pull a gallon or so out after 3-4 days and add whatever you want. I just recommend heating whatever it is to at lease 140 for 15 minutes. I've had experiences with adding fruit that carried its own 'mystery'...

My question would be what type of fruit? I change when and where I add depending on what I'm adding. For example, citrus I add at the last 20 of boil, apples or pitted fruits in primary, cherries or berries go in the primary or secondary depending on beer. But that can all be swapped around...

What is on the ingredient list?

Preservs will not let the yeast do their job.

I don't recommend powder. Cinnamon doesn't really dissolve. It's easier to get the sticks out. My personal choice, and everyone has a different one, I boil about a quart of water with a few sticks in it for 20 minutes or so, chill it, then pore it in. Sticks and all. I've had a problem before...

My girlfriend, who actually loves beer, says anything 'dark' tastes like Guinness. The sad thing is she actually has a taste for craft beer, just hates anything 'dark'.

Just looked up founders, not available within 200 miles of me. That might explain it.

I'm hoping too. I'm getting a huge shipment from Petaluma tomorrow, hopefully there will be some in there that will be on at least one of these lists.

I do have a time limit, well, more of a temp limit. If the beers cold enough, it's time to drink.

Ok, I'm going to prove my lack of 'good' beer education. What is this KBS everyone speaks of? Never heard of it before, and I try to keep up.

Don't judge me, it's after noon somewhere! ;)

Haha! If your water has an after taste there's something very wrong!

I second that!^ That dog needs to know who's boss. Mine won't even go near anything I pee on. Stout just knows. The funny thing is, I'm not the Alfa. In here eyes, my 4 year old son is, I'm second.

I agree with that^ I know I took full advantage of this site to get my 100 in. It actually got me even more hooked on the site. Been a member for a while but never really an active member. Now, this is where I spend most of my online time. Hopefully I'll be able to chime in and get to grant a...

It's all trial and error, but mostly it's the advise from others that help you pull it together. I think that most of the people drawn to this hobby are a different breed. I've met one or two jerks out of hundreds of people. Those are pretty good odds.

Gateway beer

Wookey Jack as I start the mash. What the hell am I thinking starting at 11:30?

You have grates? I have a garbage disposal in my shower. I'd like to know who doesn't pee in the shower. Those are the uptight people I need to avoid.
