Sorry, between work and self imposed projects I've not been online much this week. That is what mine looked like.....I did cold crash and fine it with gelatine and below is the real thing

I can see a couple of potential culprits. 1. Did you add the mango to primary? Apparently the trub/yeast can interfere with the flavour. For best results add the fruit to a new FV and siphon the beer on top as you would for batch priming. Ideally with something like this you want to be airless...

Sorry been rushing about It was 23L

It worked really well, I took the keg along with some others to a party last weekend and it came out for a bit and the consesus was it was good. For secondary I stewed the plums in the same way I did for the boil, I brought some flavouring to add at bottling but it didn't need it.

I've tweaked the order a bit, from my reading about adding secondary additions, batch priming etc its better to put the addition in the bucket and the beer to it. The Sugar & Orange Juice are optional, I'd did it that way when I added the 2nd batch of plums to my porter and I'm very happy with...

I'd get another bucket, if you are doing stuff like this having a secondary vessel is advisable. You can dump stuff into primary, but there are risks around dead yeast interacting badly with things like fruit additions. I've done a couple of fruity beers this year and I've always moved it to a...

I am in, always need more kegs.... :D

Spot on I think except the mixed fruit addition So with this I would boil 2 cups of water, 1 cup of orange juice and mebbe 100g of brewing sugar in a pan, add the mixed fruit and boil this for 10 mins or so, it will get a bit jammy. Add this to a fresh bucket in a mesh bag and siphon the...

So I did this, I'm not proud of it, except I sort of am and about 20 Pints of it got guzzled at a party on Saturday so its a crowd pleaser. I used Strawberry Silk Sheets from Wolf brewing as the base recipe, brewday was a mare, stuck mash, stuck Sparge, water volume all to pot...but it came out...

Its still on the to do list. I've been busy with a plum porter and a milkshake IPA, should get to this one in a week or two.

Last year I did mine in the last week of October and it was good for drinking by mid December, I split it between the keg and some bottles and it was all pretty good as I recall.

My Summer Tryst Golden Ale, had a bit of fermentation chamber accident with this one and left it at 40c for 3 days with the dry hop in it, aside from poor head retention I think I got away with it. Its hoppy and refreshing with a lower more British level of carbonation than I normally do (so...
