I'd like to develop an Ephemere style base to experiment with fruit this fall. I have apple and pear trees and my wife wants me to give apricots a go. I really like the subtleness of the fruit in Ephemere and the way the yeast flavors compliment. So, I'd like a spicy yeast flavor, some haze, fairly dry... I was thinking of starting with something close to a Belgian Wit and then racking on top of the various fruits in batches.
5 lbs wheat dme
.25 lbs flaked wheat
.5 lbs sugar
.5 oz hop addition - 60 min
Safale T-58
Thoughts? Anyone ever used T-58 with fruit before? How much fruit would you use? Any changes to the grains/sugars? Thanks!
