I brewed today!

Peaches will go in at end of fermentation. Until then, pretty basic.
I'm curious because I grow peaches and always have plenty. I've made peach wine that is very good. I have thought about a peach wheat or Saison but haven't gone there yet. Just curious, how much do you use?

Maybe look at a Kriek Lambic, changing the cherries for peaches?

My old house had over a dozen dwarf peach trees and I ended up using them in a Saison once, it came out pretty good. I still have a jar ... but, got to be 5 or 6 years old now. When I did this I used basically a quart mason jar of them.

When I did blackberries I canned them with light pils malt instead of a regular sugar base.

I brew mostly 2.5 gal batches. I will throw in 3 to 4 lbs in this batch.

Do you notice a peach flavor or aroma? In my wine I noticed some aroma but not really a flavor. It may have been because the wine yeast fermented dryer. What yeast do you use?
 
Yesterday was brew #100! I brewed Wayner's Pale Ale. I nailed my OG twice! The first one was when I hit the recipe's actual OG (1.060) and the second one was after I boiled another 20 minutes to hit the (incorrect) OG (1.065) that I had written down :rolleyes: ! The only real problem I had was that, after flame-out, I started running water through the immersion chiller while I started to setup the circulation pump. That didn't take long, but it was long enough to drop the wort temp to 140°F (60°C)! So I fired up the burner and brought it back up to 160°F (71°C) before letting it sit for another 10 minutes.
