Adding maple syrup into secondary to get the maple flavor

[olotti]

So I was thinking of adding maple syrup to my secondary of a bba stout I do, will this kick off a secondary fermentation due to the sugar in the maple syrup? I've heard and read that maple syrup added to primary during or even after fermentation gets eaten by the yeast since it's pure sugar and doesn't leave the up front maple syrup taste so I was thinking of adding it to secondary. Thoughts?

Its best to add mapple syrup in secondary with minimal yeast as it is mostly convertible to alcool. Also, try selecting a low attenuation yeast to maximize residual mapple sugar. Heres a nice write up on beer with mapple: https://byo.com/stories/issue/item/3370-maple-beer

You could also try priming with mapple syrup!
Cheers!

You can filter with I think a 300 micron filter when putting it into secondary . That should remove the yeast. But it takes away some flavor from the yeast. But you will have to force carb it.
