Are there any bennifits or disadvantages in adding your fermentables in stages.
Yeast was D-47
I was board about a month ago and had 6lb of hone and 10lb of pears so whiped up a 5 gallon batch that i had planned to just carbonate in a keg, thought it would maybe be something light and tasty. Well after it was done or at lest mostly done fermenting it tasted almost like nothing. So this week i racked and then added another 3 lb honey and another 8lb of pears and its fermenting nicely again. now my plan is to taste again when fermenting stops and follow the same process if needed.
I realize that not follow a great process on this batch but that really wasnt the intent from the start.
Thoughts?
