Yep I've done that too.

When I was in high school in the early 1980's several of my classmates received hand-me-down Gremlins from their older siblings. The senior area in the student parking lot looked like a used Gremlin dealership for a while. 😆

@mikewatkins727: Thank you! That's what I was thinking in regard to the lemon juice, maybe 8 or 12 ounces since it will be a 3 gallon batch. Just enough to enhance not overpower.

I found a pound of candied fruit in my freezer. No preservatives, just candied with sugar syrup. It's a blend of citron, lemon, pineapple and cherries. I'm thinking this would be good with triple berry blend in a 3 gallon batch of DB. Will I need to add some lemon or key lime juice as well...

I haven't been able to find Old Orchard Berry Blend lately to make the recipe as is but I found out Juicy Juice makes a Berry Blend too. I might have a go at this using the Juicy Juice.

1970 Ford Maverick. Yellow body with black interior. Automatic transmission. AM radio. That car had some serious power. Yep you want your teen daughter driving that on the freeway hahaha 😆 I bought it from my grandmother in 1982. She drove that car like a Little Old Lady from Pasadena. :r🤣 I...

I racked the Red and Blue Berry (Cranberry and blueberry) DB Saturday. Stirred in the additives and added the Super Kleer. I plan to let it sit undisturbed for at least a week per the recipe. Even dry this one tastes good :D I didn't add the second bottle of key lime juice after all.

Racked my Red and Blue Berry DB (cranberry and blueberry) today then made a big bowl of Loaded Baked Potato salad.

My late Husky Williwa used that same method. :h I could brush her for hours (she loved being groomed) but she still dropped copious amounts of undercoat the beginning of each spring. You could track her by the tufts. A Hoover upright was no match for it. :h

Welcome to WMT!

I am considering adding another 16 ounce of key lime juice in secondary. The key lime juice is very mild. I appreciate your insight about faint aftertaste.

Blueberries and Cranberries update 2 (peaches have dissolved)... Gravity nearly .990, still lightly fizzy. I tasted a bit of it tonight and this batch has a nice solid blueberry flavor with cranberry finish. I'm hoping the lime will come through when everything is done and I sweeten it. So far...

History major perhaps?

Blueberries Cranberries and Peaches update... I decided to make this a 3 gallon experiment. It's the result of a clean out of my freezer and what I had in my supply cupboard. The total amounts of fruit are 3 pounds blueberries, 2 pounds cranberries and 2 pounds peaches plus a large box of...

@cmason1957 The unsettling part is that makes perfect sense to me. :h

Depending how much top up is needed, I will probably use some very inexpensive Red Blend. I am also considering doing a 3 gallon batch of Classic DB before I start this one. That might solve the topping issue in case more than a liter or so is needed. A dose of Super Kleer will likely be used...

@G259 Thanks! No sorbate so it's good there. I appreciate the heads up about the peach solids too.

Blueberries Cranberries and Peaches oh my! I was sorting the contents in my freezer and found 4 pounds blueberries, 3 pounds of peaches and about 1 1/2 pounds of cranberries. I also found a 16 ounce bottle of key lime juice in the pantry. I'm thinking all this might be the makings for a batch...

This sounds like something my family and friends would enjoy 🙂 Please keep us updated. 🙂
