Just tried the garrison raspberry wheat last weekend for the first time believe it or not, and loved it.

Post by: Kyle on August 18, 2011, 02:53:02 PM: yep, its in a can, so it would already be pasturized.

Post by: Richard on August 18, 2011, 02:54:46 PM: +1 (to "I'm gonna try this" and "just dump it in").

Kyle: why the higher mash temp? Trying to balance the tartness of the raspberries?

Post by: Kyle on August 18, 2011, 09:46:31 PM: forgot to add the whirlfloc, this will be a tad cloudy. At least there's no wheat, so it won't be opaque.

Post by: Jake on September 01, 2011, 10:59:18 AM: So I was in at noble grape picking up a spare airlock, and I came out of there with a can of raspberry puree. Was this the same stuff you got Kyle?
They told me to throw it in before fermentation, but I see that you did it after 3 days ... I don't trust a thing these guys tell me, so I want to get some input here.

Post by: Kyle on September 05, 2011, 09:49:23 PM: what dave said, also, It seems to be possibly infected (see technique forum) so I'd heat it up to pasturize it before using, and Jake, yep thats the same stuff I got.
