I pulled a gallon of wort out of a farmhouse ale to secondary on top of some mulberries. I froze the mulberries, then poured boiling water over them to sanitize and muddle them to get them into the jug. The juice looked beautiful going in but turned cloudy within a few hours. It has been about a week and has not cleared up. I am thinking about adding pectic enzyme in the form of papaya skin, but read that pectic enzyme is bad for head retention in beer. Another thought was adding brett (Orval or JP dregs) on the theory that "brett eats everything". Or just live with the cloudy beer and hope it clears up when conditioned and chilled. Thoughts?
