So for the blood orange hefe, I took a reading today and it was perfect at 1.012. tasted it and the orange zest had mellowed so I decided to add the flesh. The flesh had been segmented and frozen solid for several days. I sanitized a muslin bag and fed a little bit of the bag into the carboy. I then broke up the frozen segments into smaller chunks to fit into the neck of the carboy. Was able to get 3/4 of the 4 lbs of flesh into the bag that I had without really forcing it in. I tied a secure but not super tight not in the top end sprayed with starsan and dropped the bag in. It wasn't the most sterile procedure but it's at 5.5abv and the orange was frozen. I think it will be fine. The reason I fooled with the bag is that I am going to try to rinse the yeast and reuse. How long should I leave it before bottling?
