Bitter Orange peel is thick, rough, and generally is green, yellow, or gray colors. The flesh of the orange is dry and very bitter. The peel, which is used in brewing beer is less bitter, has a mild orange flavor. Bitter orange gives beers a citrusy and herbal flavor and aroma. Bitter orange is generally added to boiling wort during the last 20 minutes of cooking. The amount varies by the style of beer being brewed from about grams per gallon to 5.5grams or about .3 OZ to 1 OZ of dried bitter orange peel. A Belgium Ale would use the low end of this range while a stronger holiday beer may use more. When brewing with malt extracts, the orange peel and other spices can be added to a muslin bag for easily removal before the wort is put into the primary fermenter. Orange peel often used in combination with coriander and cardamom in Belgium Witbier, or white beers. |
