raspberry honey wheat using puree?

[impalor419]

I am ready to brew a raspberry honey wheat using 1lb of honey. Planning on using 2 15oz cans of oregon raspberrys in syrup. Looking for a recommendation on when to use the raspberries. The primary or the secondary? Does anyone have any recommendations?

Im currently brewing up a raspberry wheat beer, and have read that the best procedure for adding the raspberry is to allow for a primary of 2-3 weeks, then rack/cold crash it for 2 weeks...Then rack it onto your raspberry pulp and let it ferment on that for 2 weeks at normal temps - I think the goal of this technique is probably to stunt the yeast, and hopefully allow more raspberry flavour to come through - This is all speculation though, as I am about to rack onto the raspberries in the next few days, and dont really know how it will turn out

Thanks. I am leaning on adding it to the secondary.

I made a raspberry wheat last year and added it to secondary. Turned out well
