Cheers.
I dont think you can go wrong with that recipe/process. I've used amalgamation twice (once for a 100% brett fermentation, and the other for a 2 month secondary) - both great beers in their own way. My only suggestion would be to add the raspberry to the secondary/corny keg for some more food for the amalgamation, given that the gravity is already low (sub 1.010) from the 644. I'd save the fresh raspberry for secondary and the frozen for primary. Either way it'll be a good wild!
