Our team works closely with breweries domestically and internationally who operate on levels ranging from a home-brew to industrial scale. Our clients tend to report two ideal points during the brewing process at which you can add our products: During fermentation (towards the end of secondary fermentation) or post fermentation, right into your brite tank or keg. Keep in mind, when adding to the brite or keg, Craft Purées, Artisan, and Compounds do contain fermentable sugars. Extracts are the only exception and can be added at any point during your process.
For a more fruit-forward flavor, we recommend adding Craft Purées, Artisans, and Compounds post fermentation. If your end result is overly sweet, our products can be added during the fermentation process (typically near the end of secondary fermentation). A slightly higher dosage may be required. The final product will be more nuanced and less sweet in comparison to a post fermentation approach.
Craft Purée®
Suggested use levels serve as a starting point. Adjustments may be needed depending on the flavor, desired finish, and style of beer. Craft Purees are naturally flavored, pasteurized, filtered, and do not require mixing and dissolving prior to dosing. We do not use artificial sweeteners or preservatives. Add near the end of second fermentation or post fermentation into your brite tank or keg. Suggested dosing method also depends on how the beverage is being stored and the activity of yeast. Craft Purees can also be used to flavor your beer by the glass.
- Suggested starting use level is about 1-3.5 oz per 1 gallon of beer
- About 0.83-2.5% by weight

Artisans
Suggested use levels serve as a starting point. Adjustments may be needed depending on the flavor, desired finish, and style of beer.
- Suggested starting use level is 0.5 – 1.5oz per 1 gallon of beer
- About 0.5-1% by weight
Artisan Natural Flavors do contain fermentable sugars and are typically added during secondary fermentation or post fermentation into the brite tank. Suggested dosing method also depends on how the beverage is being stored and the activity of yeast.
Compounds
Suggested use levels serve as a starting point. Adjustments may be needed depending on the flavor, desired finish, and style of beer.
- Suggested starting use level is 0.5 – 1.5oz per 1 gallon of beer
- About 0.5-1% by weightSince compounds contain fermentable sugars, they are typically added during secondary fermentation or post fermentation into the brite tank. Suggested dosing method also depends on how the beverage is being stored and the activity of yeast.
Extracts
Suggested use levels serve as a starting point. Adjustments may be needed depending on the flavor, desired finish, and style of beer.
- Suggested starting use level is 0.01 - 0.02 % by weight
- About 1.5-3 oz by weight per 111 gallons
- About 43-85 grams per 420 litersExtracts are the most concentrated product line offered and are naturally flavored with little to no sugar, because of this the desired sweetness and tartness of your final product should be established prior to dosing. Add near the end of second fermentation or post fermentation into your brite tank or keg.
