Notes

OG reading should be about 5 points more than what is actually read (about 0.5% ABV in the end) due to fruit being added to the secondary. Add the fruit in a mesh bag to make cleanup easier.

Back-sweeten the beer in the keg, if desired, with ~1/2 the fruit (by weight, strained) used in the secondary along with campden and potassium sorbate to prevent further fermentation.

Watermelon Jalapeno:
------------------------------------------------------------------

  • 1 seeded jalapeno for full boil
  • 2 seeded jalapenos for flameout
  • 5.5# of watermelon (~2 small)
  • 2 jalapenos in secondary

    Strawberry Habanero:
    ------------------------------------------------------------------
  • 1 seeded habanero for full boil
  • 2 seeded habanero for flameout
  • 7# of strawberry in muslin bag in secondary
    • Frozen strawberries
    • Heat on stove to 160 degrees
  • 2 habanero (1 seeded) in secondary
