Directions:

Bake macadamia nuts and cacao nibs at 400°F (204°C) for 15 minutes. You’re aiming for a slight burnt character.

Mash at 150°F (66°C) for 60 minutes, adding the mash hops (Willamette), cacao nibs, and macadamia nuts at the start of the mash rest. Target a mash pH of 5.22. Lauter, then boil for 70 minutes, adding hops, Whirlfloc, and yeast nutrient as indicated.
