Notes

11/23/2021 - Brew Day - Boil for 30 minutes without any hop additions & chill to 100 degrees. Pour in 5 capsuls of Lacto Plantarum and continue chilling to 75 degrees. Pour into fermenter as normal and leave in the basement overnight. Plan to taste over the next day or two and determine when to pitch yeast.

11/26/2021 - Pitched Cali Dry at 6pm (around 48 hours after pitching lacto) and aerated.

12/2/2021 - Added peach puree and transfered to another fermenter to mix. Puree looked a bit brown/oxidized, but it tasted fine overall. Maybe not as bright as the first batch I used. I used a metal spoon to help mix in the fruit puree and may stir it up once a day or so to make sure it stays mixed in. Didn't sample at this point, but there was still a layer of krausen on top, which is what I wanted to help ferment the peach.

?/?/2021 - Kegged - FG=1.010 - Pleasant tartness with a nice peach aroma & flavor.
