I want to add some blueberry puree to my brew. Will it be okay to just add them to my primary or should i rack to a secondary then add them? My primary fermentation has already finished.
I typed in "Adding fruit to a bad tasting beer will just give you a fruity bad tasting beer."...but deleted them at the last moment.To add to what homebrewer99 said, fruit will not make a bad beer good. You will just have a bad beer with fruit in it.
I think most fruit additions take a while to ferment out. For that reason, most people rack out of the primary to avoid the dreaded autolysis. If I were you, I would add the blueberry puree to secondary, rack on top, and leave most of the yeast and trub in primary.
so you wait until you've achieved the final gravity?
