Beer For Xmas

[scoundrel]

get a couple packs of frozen rasberries and defrost them (out of the packet) in the bottom of you clean fermenter (primary) them top to 20 L water chuck in your tin chill to 20 degrees pitch yeast at 20, Leave it in the primary for about 3 days after the krausen (foamy shit) has colapsed then rack off to secondary, fruit beers need the extra time in primary with the fruit to hel develop colour and builds a stronger fruit flavor.
