    Switching up Fresh ingredients instead of dry.

    Hello. I am getting ready to brew my 2nd batch of beer, and am looking to do a Christmas ale. I've purchased a kit from a local supply store, but I am looking to doctor the recipe a bit. The kit only has a bag labeled "Spice", and has no measurements on it. It appears to contain dried orange...
