Notes

Fruit prep:
You'll want to run the fruit through a freeze/thaw cycle about three times. This will help break down the outer walls of the fruit so it allows for better flavor transfer to the beer. On the day the fruit is to be added, fully thaw it for the last time and add 2oz of vodka in a sanitized bowl and gently press the fruit. Do NOT fully crush it, just break it up a bit.

Primary fermentation should last only a couple of days if you prepared a starter.

Rerack to secondary and add fruit in a hop bag and let that sit for 7 days.

Rerack one final time, remove the fruit and add the dry hops for 5 days.

Cold crash, keg/bottle. Enjoy.
