Notes

using 1lb total of maple syrup:
adding 1/2 into last few minutes of boil, this should ferment out, but leave a little maple flavor.

the plan is to use Campden tablets and Potassium Sorbate, after secondary fermentation is complete, to stop the yeast from multiplying. Then adding the remaining maple syrup. Let rest for a week or so to ensure no additional fermentation, then kegging and carbonating.

Toasting then adding the pecans into fermentation, either just secondary, or with the primary Ferm too, haven't decided yet.
