WARNING: Kettle losses > 2% detected which throw off OG calculation for extract/partial mash recipes in batch target 'fermentor' mode. Solution: Reduce kettle losses, misc losses and hops absorption in equipment profile, OR set batch target to 'kettle' and do a full wort boil. See batch target FAQ.

Notes

After primary fermentation is complete, add blueberries to sanitized muslin bags and either carefully place in primary (if you have a bucket or large mouth carboy), or if using secondary, place in secondary and rack beer on top. Allow secondary fermentation for about another week, just keep an eye on hydrometer readings. A lot of differing opinions on fruit additions. I have never had an issue or a bad batch using this method and I prefer the fresher flavor it imparts vs boiling the fruit.
