shite, i racked an american wheat on 5lbs of strawberries on friday and had a full on blow-off requiring secondary fermentation. strawberries were attempting to escape. its just sinking back down now. was in primary for 2 weeks


I've done my blackberry wheat twice. Both times, had a mild secondary reaction. I also racked onto frozen blackberries. Had just enough krausen pop up to cover the blackberries for a day or 2, then it went back down. Didn't affect gravity too much, though.

probably wouldnt have needed the blowoff but i racked it into a 5 gallon secondary so it didnt have alot of headspace to work with
