I've got a 5 gallon batch of belgian pale ale that I brewed about 3 weeks ago. OG was 1.046, now sitting at 1.010. It's sitting on oak chips right now, and I was considering bottling half the batch and dumping the dregs from a couple of Petrus bottles that I've cultured. The starter from the Petrus bottle smells brutally sour and horsey, which is what I'm looking for for the other half of this BPA.
My question is, do I need to add any further munchies for the bugs or will they be able to take the gravity down a bit more? If I need to add something, what should I be adding? I considered blackberries, but I'm not sure how to sterilize the berries, and I haven't seen blackberry puree around.
Thoughts?
