Tonight was time to rack the mango beer from the primary fermenter to secondary. I figured well, Lets go ahead and rack it on to the mangoes, and use the tertiary fermenter to do a final dry hop and let the beer clear a bit.
So I stuffed the mangoes into the carboy, dumped in the first round of dry hops and siphoned the beer on top.
The beer had fermented down to 1.018, so it’s working, but not completely finished.
And WOW What aroma and flavor it has already. Very juicy. Lots of citrus and grapefruit notes.
You can see that the yeast started working on the mangos pretty quickly, Fermenting their sugars and filling them with c02, floating them up to the surface.
The green on top are the hops and should settle out prior to the next racking.
