Notes

Ferment for 7 days, then ramp up temp a degree every 6-8 hours to 71 for diacytyl rest, leave for a day or two, then drop temp to 60 for 24 hours. Add cocoa, ancho chilies and vanilla beans and age for 5-7 days. Crash beer to 35 for 48 hours. Carbonate to 2.25 volumes.

Go with cheap Vanilla beans since flavor nuances will be lost in this beer.

Prep vanilla and chilies by slicing lengthwise to increase surface area and impact on flavor. Consider making a vodka tincture with the chilies, vanilla and cocoa nibs.
