This is a very long thread so if this question has been answered, please excuse me for not being able to find the answer.
Can you add adjuncts to the picopaks once you receive it? Like coriander and orange peel, etc.?
The pico is a closed system. Once the pak is inserted, you are able to pause the system, but the pak is sealed, so adding adjuncts in the pak is not possible. The alternative would be to use something like a hop basket directly in the keg. Since the system recirculates the wort from the step filter to the keg, it would the same as sitting in the brew kettle. While I was asking myself the same question early on, I have not brewed a pak yet that I felt like experimenting with. With summer around the corner, I was thinking of doing a weiss with grapefruit peels using the Freestyle pak. If you do, please share what you did and results.
