42523.5 gal. + 5 gal. German Perle Pale Ale ------------- 42528.5 gal.

I purchased the GE 5.0 cu ft. model FCM5SHBWW. It differs slightly from the FCM5SUWW that's available in this thread. Here are my measurements. Exterior - 28 1/2" W x 19 1/2" D x 33 5/8" H Interior - 23 5/8" W x 14 5/8" D x 28" H Hump - 8 1/4" W x 14 5/8" D x 8 3/8" H Hump Side - Right...

I put fresh fruit in a secondary carboy and then rack the beer on top of it after fermentation is complete.

Three pounds should be plenty. When I add whole raspberries, I simply froze them and then dumped them in the carboy when it came time to secondary. (Let them thaw a bit first.) I didn't bother pureeing them in a blender.

30,603.5 + 5 gallons of a Belgian Dubbel = 30,608.5

Three pounds of raspberries for five gallons works well. That's the ratio that I use for my raspberry saison. I disagree using pre-frozen berries however. The first couple of times I brewed my saison I bought fresh raspberries, froze them in my freezer, thawed them, and racked on top. The...

2013 + 5 pale ale = 2018 gal.

5 gallons of pumpkin ale -> 41963 total.

It doesn't taste infected and it doesn't look infected, but that's something to consider. The pale ale was fermented at a cooler temperature than the saison so maybe I failed to account for the amount of residual CO2. For what it's worth, I shared some of the pale ale with some friends and when...

So I was bottling my raspberry half of the saison when I decided to crack open a bottle of the regular half of the same batch that had been bottled for 3 weeks. I did this to check the carbonation because I was slightly worried that I put too much priming sugar in at bottling. This is the third...

I'd just leave it as is. Since you brewed this for your wife, I assume she likes raspberries (and their tartness). Keep it simple.

I've done the fresh raspberry route a couple of times, but I didn't mash them. I just plopped them in whole. Worked beautifully.

Why not go for some tequila or rum based drinks?

The general guideline I've heard/used is 1 lb. of fruit per gallon of beer. For the raspberry saison that I make, I lower it a bit because raspberries have a pretty strong flavor. I use 3 lbs. per 5 gallons. I bought fresh raspberries and froze them. And then let them thaw and racked on top of...

27652 + 5 gallons Raspberry Saison = 27657

I thought it was funny that the gents that were bringing this claim were essentially saying, "how can we get drunk if they're watering it down?!" Somehow I doubt they were doing some sort of calculation of alcohol per dollar across varying beers and spirits. (Side note, if getting drunk is your...
