I made blueberry melomel a couple of years ago; added the berries to the must when I pitched the yeast. Turned out nicely.
With a class today, though, it was recommended I wait until I do my 1st racking and then add the fruit; the proponent of that said it may involve the sugars in the fruit biasing sweetness readings (or something like that) if added after doing the hydrometer stuff.
Anybody have experience in this or any ideas/recommendations/anecdotes? thx for some feedback .....
