Guys,
Is there a magic percentage when typically adding orange, corriander, cinnamon etc
I'm planning a brew for Bony night based on OP and would like to add some kick to it
Any help as usual much appreciated

Re: Adding fruit/spices to a brew
I terms of fruit, strawberries etc, it seems more common to add to the fermentation late (in the secondary) I get the feeling you are looking more towards spices to make a "christmas cake" type of flavour. It will be a case of experimenting to your taste. There was a thread in the last week or so using orange zest and other spices (cloves I think) added like late hops. Sorry I can't remember the amounts.............maybe the OP you are refering to !
