Hi all,
Can anyone advise of a method to make a DECENT Kriek from either a kit or some kind of adaptation from a kit/fresh liquid wort ingredients
Thanks in advance for any feedback
You could just replace the 3lb of wheat DME with a 1.7kg can of Coopers Wheat, then you wouldn't need to boil/add hops/chill at all. There's your kit Kriek.alien13 said:There is a kit that is available in America that comes with:
3 lbs Wheat DME
3 lbs Pilsen DME
1 oz Hersbrucker
2 cans Vintners Harvest Cherry Puree
Wyeast 3278 Lambic Blend
Not quite just a "kit" Kriek, but doesn't require any mashing, just boil the two DME along with the hops, chill and pitch.
Thanks everyone for your help with this. Just checked out Vintners Cherry Puree- how does one get hold of this in the most economic way in Australia? Seems to be an American product that needs imporrting rater than being plucked off the shelf of a store...carniebrew said:You could easily just replace the 3lb of wheat DME with a 1.7kg can of Coopers Wheat, then you wouldn't need to boil/add hops/chill at all.

Why not ferment and drop on cherries?nickh said:Thanks everyone for your help with this. Just checked out Vintners Cherry Puree- how does one get hold of this in the most economic way in Australia?

When would you suggest to add the 2 cans of cherry puree to the recipe? Could you possible please provide a step by step method for this?carniebrew said:You could just replace the 3lb of wheat DME with a 1.7kg can of Coopers Wheat, then you wouldn't need to boil/add hops/chill at all.
