Hi-beginner brewer. I have brewed a few times using kits with success and will be using another kit to brew an ipa. The recipe calls for dry hopping but I also plan on adding peaches to a secondary. My mind is made up, I’m adding peaches and you can’t stop me. I know you don’t NEED a secondary but it’s my plan.
I plan on doing a primary fermentation for 7 days, then racking onto 4 lbs of peaches in a secondary and letting that sit for another 5-7 days. After that I will dry hop for another 5-7 days. About 3 weeks total before bottling.
The peaches will be diced and frozen- not boiled at all.
Just looking for some constructive criticism as I have never dry hopped or added fruit to my home brews. Thanks!
