Notes: Roast cocoa nibs and let rest in whisky for a few days. Rack to secondary after about 5 - 7 days and "dry hop" with your cocoa nibs / whisky solution.
This will be a test for my port barrel. Might double the amount, and bottle some.
**Half into the barrel, half into bottles.**
Not using barrel this time. Want to check the recipe first. Had a little taste before pitching the cocoa nibs and vanilla, and was already pretty chocolatey! Also, more bitter than expected. I think the cocoa and vanilla ( and Starward Whiskey ) will go well.
Going to have a yeast fight between Belgian and the New World.
Both chocolatey and bitter, in a good way! Maybe a little too bitter, but it's a nice bitter. The nib addition seemed to have rounded that out. Just bottled ( 01/June/2020 ).
When I bottled this, it was brown. It's jet black now. Bitterness has mellowed nicely in only a couple weeks. Quite enjoyable.
This is bloody nice now. 26/07/2020. Around 2 months in bottles to get to nice flavour town.

Notes: Brew Day 7/6/24:
Ambient/Outside temp: 103 F
Strike Temp: 162 F
Mash Temp: 151-158 F (60 min)
-We should have shot for a lower strike temp considering how hot it is today. The mash temp landed at 156 F but later when I went to check on it it had climbed to 158 F. I left the lid cracked in hopes to drop the temp a few degrees. 1 hour timer started.
-152 F reached at 42 minutes left. Wort rested a majority of time at 151 F.
Mash Out 170 F (10 min)
1st Runnings - Approx. 4 gal
Batch sparge - 180 F (10 min)
- Collected over 4 gal. Boil kettle is filled to the top. Boil over inevitable.
- Definitely had boil over. Waited for it to finish before adding hops.
2 oz Centennial added at 60 min
1oz Mandarina-Bavaria added at 45 min
1oz Saaz added at 30 min
Wort cooled and honey added at 110 F.
