An allotment neighbour has given me some hops, which he thinks are Goldings. I've dried them and am planning to use them in my next brew with either US05 or Nottingham yeast. I'm going to aim for three batches: one plain and two with fruit puree in, one of which will be blackberries and the other either plums or apples. The fruit is in the freezer at the moment, but I'm going to cook it down to a pulp and then add it to the brew after four days of fermentation. I'll follow the recipe at the end of this message.
I am a stove-top brewer, making 16-19-pint batches. What do you reckon?
Thanks in advance.
