Frequently asked questions about lime purée for beer
How much lime purée should I use?
As a rough guide, 1–4 kg of fruit purée per approx. 25 litres, depending on how pronounced you want the flavour. Lime is tart and low in sugar, so start at the lower end and adjust to taste.
When do I add the purée?
Usually after primary fermentation, after about a week. Then let the beer ferment for at least another week so the fruit sugar ferments out before bottling or kegging.
Does the purée need pasteurising before use?
No. The purée is already pasteurised and can be poured straight into the fermenter.
How long does an opened pack keep?
According to the producer, 21 days in the fridge at 4 °C.
