I’m going to make a blonde ale for a summertime outing coming up and I wanted it to have a nice refreshing orange/citrusy pop and flavor. I planned on adding some orange peel to achieve the flavors I want but I’m not exactly sure how to go about this.
Should I add the peel to the boil or add it as a dry hop after fermentation is complete? Or both? I don’t really have the means to secondary right now so that’s not really an option.
This will be a 5 gallon extract batch. I’ve looked at recipes online and some said to add it in the boil, others said to add it as you would a dry hop and some didn’t tell me what to do with it at all.
I need to impress my wife’s psych PhD classmates and professors so I really wanna nail this brew.
