I’m in the process of making my first AG 5 gal batch. It’s a Citra IPA that I wanted to have a little of an orange flavor. I added 5oz of Sweet Orange peel to the last 5 minutes of the boil.
Yesterday I racked the batch (after 8 days) to my 5 gal carboy and decided to have a little sip to see where the flavor profile as at and didn’t taste any orange. The color is good, a nice orange tint.
I will be dry hopping the batch over the next two week and was thinking about adding some more orange peel but wasn’t sure if it would help.
I was hoping not to use extracts to keep the brew as AG as possible.
Any suggestions on how to adding some orange flavor to the brew at this point?
Thanks,
Dave
