Northern Brewer was running a sale yesterday, had the Irish Stout, Nut Brown, and Chinook IPA extract kits on sale for $14.92 each. I got the stout and IPA kits. The stout I will probably just brew by the directions.
The IPA though I am going to change again. Last time I added 3 lbs of the NB Marris Otter malt extract and changed the hop schedule by adding Mosaic and Citra and changing most of the adds to later in the boil. This time I plan on brewing by the recipe, but then adding mango's to the secondary for a couple weeks.
I still need to figure out how much mango to add and how to sanitize it before I rack over on top of it, but as of right now that is the plan.
Couple questions, what prevents the fruit from going bad while it is in the fermenter? Also, will the mango's be edible when the beer is removed from them?
