Several questions in here. Any insight by anyone would be greatly appreciated.
I brewed a recipe i found online that seemed to be missing a few steps so i made my best guess, now i worry i was wrong.
First off, i brewed last night. Placed it in my primary and this morning and around lunchtime the bubbler was going along just fine. I went down to look at it about an hour ago and my beer has come up into my bubbler.
Will i have to worry about contamination? Will this ruin my batch? Should i scrap it now and start over?
I was making a Strawberry Rhubarb Wheat Ale. The recipe calls for frozen strawberries and rhubarb but doesnt tell you where to add them in the recipe.
I boiled my word then at the end of the boil i added the frozen fruit to the wort. The temperature dropped to 75C. I did not return the wort to a boil. (My local homebrew store said that since the fruit was frozen then i didnt have to worry about bacteria).
After my primary fermentation i was planning to remove the fruit and then do my secondary in my carboy.
Did I add my fruit at the correct time? Or should I have added it at the secondary fermentation stage?
