Hello guys, I am planning to make a small batch (1gal) Mango Pale Ale using the ingredients I have left which are as follows :-
Grain Bill (BIAB)
Pale 2-Row - 0.35 KG
Pils - 0.28 KG
Munich - 0.1 KG
Hop Bill
Magnum - 8 grams
Nelson Sauvin - 8 grams
I have read a lot about how mango is advised to be added in Secondary. Well, I am not going to use a Secondary, so I will probably add it when Primary is done. I also want to add some mango to the boil (late addition) so as to impart some subtle mango flavor to the beer instead of just aroma.
Questions :-
1. How should I add the mango in boil? Chunks or puree? I am leaning towards dumping some sliced mango chunks in the last 10 minutes or so, about 1 mango (approx. 250-300 grams).
2. How do I plan the Hop Additions? I am planning on a 60min Mag, 20min Mag, Nelson @Whirlpool (71C) and Nelson @Dry hop for 4 days. Will this work?
I know I have another thread asking about whether to add Puree or chunks. But this time I mainly want to know how I should plan the hop additions. Would have been nice if I had some Citra, but I don't so kindly help me
