Additives in fruit

[therealthing691]

As you know by now i love fruit beers the question is this i am going to do a  cranberry with  bottled juice .My plan is to reduce it from 3L to 1L but the question is it has vitamin c and acid regulator do you think this will matter . Grain bill is Light lager malted oats and carafoam plus dextrose

well is added  tastes ok in the hydrometer  lets see how it tastes when its done and conditioned . I added it at about 90% of the fermentation was done

Vitamin C is tart. Most packaged fruit juice is fortified to give 100% RDA per serving, if it isn't that way already, naturally. Some contain 150% of the RDA. I would not use too much, and use a kit that is not too bitter.

What do you mean by an acid regulator? 

Cheers,

Christina.

What i used worked not bad is just a mild taste of cranberry  would have liked more but all good . Hi Christina  The regulator is in the juice was wondering if it would add off tastes but it didnt. I think next time instead of reducing 3L i will do 4,5  i reduce it to a 1/3 of original volume  Regards Brian
