Enhance Your Brews with Sweet, Zesty Citrus Flavor

Dried Sweet Orange Peel, available in 1 oz and 2 oz packages, is an excellent way to infuse your homebrew with vibrant, citrusy notes. Sourced from sweet oranges (Citrus sinensis), this peel provides a fruity, mild citrus flavor with subtle floral undertones—perfect for adding complexity to a wide range of beer styles, meads, and even ciders.

How to Use Sweet Orange Peel in Brewing

Sweet orange peel is commonly used in Belgian-style witbiers, wheat beers, saisons, holiday ales, and meads to provide a clean, bright citrus character without the bitterness of bitter orange varieties.

  • Boil Addition: Add in the last 5–10 minutes of the boil to extract essential oils and citrus aroma.
  • Secondary Fermentation: For a fresher, fruitier orange flavor, steep in secondary fermentation.

Recommended Usage:

  • Light Citrus Aroma: 0.25–0.5 oz per 5 gallons
  • Balanced Citrus Flavor: 0.5–1 oz per 5 gallons
  • Bold Orange Character: 1–2 oz per 5 gallons
