Notes

If your mash tun is not big enough to fit 34 pounds of grain and 10 gallons of liquid, then I highly suggest a reiterated mash. It's very easy. (Or get a bigger mash tun, baby.)

Starter made at 1.080 with 2 packs of yeast.

Toast your Cacao Nibs

Beer will be aged in 5 gallon Balcones Whiskey Barrels for 3-6 months
