Hey everyone,
i am new to HBing and i started 2 5 gallons of Festabrew with a buddy of mine. he did a wheat and i did a cream ale.
we used the standard primary, secondary format to ferment.
when we switched over to the secondary, the wheat called for dried orange peels and coriander, both of which was purchased at the beer store.
my question is, for my next batch, i'd love to add in some herbs and or fruits to give my beer a unique flavor but i wanted to ask if it's best to always add in the secondary VS adding in the primary. also, does the fruit need to be dried first or can fresh store bough fruit be ok ??
what about ganga? same deal ?? in the secondary ?
thanks so much !!
