Notes

ADDITIONAL ITEMS
2 oz. (57 g) cocoa nibs @ 5 min

Specifications:
Yield: 5 US gal. (18.9 L)

Original Gravity: 1.060 (14.7°P)

Final Gravity: 1.018 (4.6°P)

ABV: 5.7%

IBU: 36

SRM: 48

Directions:
Use carbon-filtered Savannah municipal water from Floridan aquifer. Mash at 152°F (67°C) for approximately 60 min. (I sparged too cold, at 125°F (52°C) and did not get good extraction. Suggest warmer sparge.) Ferment at 65°F (18°C). Grind cocoa nibs in coffee grinder and sterilize with ethanol prior to addition. Soak vanilla beans overnight in ethanol to enhance flavor extraction. If is not sweet enough after secondary, add another 8 oz. (227 g) lactose. (Note that ethanol can be any spirit of your choice.)
