In the UK, cant see Amoretti. When they say they blended with pineapple juice, is that in the secondary?

Thread Resurrection! Where we all at with the tastiest zestiest Lime ale...? Lime Vodka tincture Lime Zest Lime Marmalade Lime Crystallised Which will part with the most natural powerful flavour? Maybe using all 4 methods?

I have just tried an amazing Pineapple ale! Tiny Rebel, Pineapple Express IPA.... Smell amazing, tastes brilliant of pineapples, a little on the bitter side for me, but its an IPA. Says blended with fresh pineapple juice, but what hops?!? Perfect summer drink

Ive made some citrus tinctures from vodka and rum, id like to try add that. Ill add some zest last 5 days of ferment too. :)

Whats the maximum amount of pellets you would dry hop with a ginger ale to not overpower it? 20-35g Any hop recommendations with ginger? Starting this today :)

I have spruce and pine around me, but I think I may go with the Juniper berries first.

I was looking through Brew Dogs recipes and I noticed they mostly used toasted flakes 20-40g in most recipes and ... Gorse Petals..! However they do have a Pina Colada style beer Called Zyphyr. Pineapple juice - 500g Coconut extract - 2g Lactic acid - 48g Malic acid - 5g Citric acid powder - 44g...

Thanks for the reply! I really think the candied ginger and stem ginger in syrup will give it a great taste. I think it should go in from the beginning and ferment all the way with the fresh ginger. Im using extracts, so not much boiling. Do you think the ginger should be pre-boiled first to...

Yes, you are right! I just check, shocked actually, I have a can here that is 15g Fat per 100ml. Ive got a low fat one, 7.7g? I also have Creamed Coconut, it has 64g fat per 100g!! However the fat/oil is visably separated from the solids, I could just omit that...? Ive seen coconut essence...

I have some dried berries! Ill crush them up and and see. Is that 7grams for 23/25l?

Thanks for the reply! I think maybe fresh coconut, desiccated coconut and coconut milk, could get more flavour, might end up rather cloudy though... I will experiment and post up! Does the Lactose make a big difference, not really a milk fan. Do you add the coconut at the start and leave it...

Hi all! I wanting to make a fresh evergreen pine resin tasting ale, around 5%ish. Using extract malts and hops, 23l. 31 EBC. My questions are; 1. Does adding pine needles do much, if so, what's the best way to prepare them, boiled in water, boiled in sugar, or vodka extract, or just added to...

Hi all!, Sorry if im resurrecting an old thread. Can you use Pineapple Chunks from a can instead of fresh? Would you need to calculate how much extra sugar is canned fruit? With coconut, are you roasting desiccated coconut? What if you used canned coconut milk? Could you make a...

Hi all! I wanting to make a Zesty, Citrusy IPA (Elvis Juice meets Tangerine Dream and more!, around 5%ish. Using extract malts and hops, 23l. 14 EBC. I have to my disposal, Fresh Oranges and Tangerines, Lemons and Limes for zest. Orange vodka tincture extract, candied citrus pieces. My...
