Adding currant extract

[j4mcadow]

An I add black currant extract right after boil before yeast and primary fermentation? It looks like most add these to secondary fermentation.

Thanks!

Yes, although the reason most fruit/flavor extracts are added later is to avoid the CO2 produced during fermentation from stripping the flavors.

Most people add flavor extracts to the bottling bucket AFTER fermentation.
