Im going to make the Passionfruit-Mango Wildfire Wheat in the AHA recipes (all-grain), but instead Im going to add pineapple puree and lightly toasted coconut along with rum soaked oak chips. Here is my problem. I want to balance the coconut and pineapple. From what I have read online 1 pound of puree per gallon of beer (this will all be added in the secondary). I’m making 2.75 gallons (just halved the recipe) to see how it turns out. How much coconut is all over the place online from 1/4 pound to one full pound per gallon. I know pineapple is a strong flavor. I really don’t like extracts so Im avoiding those. Im trying to balance the pineapple and coconut. Anyone have experience with this?
The oak chips I will probably only use 1 oz (the chips are soaking in rum) and no more than a few days as I want that to be a background taste no in front.
I know there is no right answer and if I ask 7 brewers I will get 7 different answers, but I trust people on this sight more than random websites. Any help is appreciated.
