Adding Ingredients & Fruit to a Wheat

[HoppyChic]

I’m looking to brew a wheat / Hefe Style & want to add spices or fruit. I’ve done orange peel & coriander. I’m thinking about banana & vanilla. I’ve never attempted the secondary fermentation. Does anyone have any tips or fun recipes to share?? Maybe even something completely different like watermelon or apricot?

Welcome to the forum! I’ve done a couple wheats lately with fruit added. A raspberry, and a strawberry rhubarb. Was very happy with both. I add the fruit to the primary fermenter, 3 or 4 days into fermentation. I freeze fresh fruit, thaw and mush up a bit, add a measured amount of vodka, let that sit a bit, then add to primary. Watermelon sounds good too, esp with summer coming.
