This is my first time using any kind of fruit in a beer, and since the girlfriend requested something that she could drink this is what i have came up with, its based on Edworts Bee Cave Brewery Kolsch recipe. I want to add a 49oz can of Oregon Fruit Puree to the brew but im not really sure when. i was thinking after 5 days i could add the puree and gently stir to rouse the yeast and incorporate everything. when my hydrometer reads the same for three days ill rack to secondary to clear. Could i cold crash this without messing up the flavor? should i add pectin since im adding fruit? most of my beers that i cold crash i usually add unflavored gelatin, should i omit it in this recipe? thanks for any and all help!
