Notes
6/21/2022 - 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 85 degrees. Pour into fermenter as normal and let lacto work for 48 hours.
6/23/2022 - Taste fermentation & pitched Cali Dry at 4pm (around 48 hours after pitching lacto) and aerated.
6/??/2022 - Add split & scraped vanilla beans (pre-soaked in vodka) to primary and let them sit for a week.
6/3/2022 - Kegged - Puree Vintner's Harvest Wine Base in blender & strain out seeds. Add puree to keg along with .5 tsp k-meta & 4 tsp k-sorbate. I added a floating dip tube as well so I can shake the keg and get decent pours. I will be putting this one in the kegerator right away to serve so the fruit doesn't potentially ferment out.
