WARNING: Kettle losses > 2% detected which throw off OG calculation for extract/partial mash recipes in batch target 'fermentor' mode. Solution: Reduce kettle losses, misc losses and hops absorption in equipment profile, OR set batch target to 'kettle' and do a full wort boil. See batch target FAQ.

Notes

Steep grains 30 mins at 160F.
Actual OG: 1.052
Soak 3 oz cocoa nibs in vodka for 10 days. Add flavored vodka to secondary for 8 days.
Add 2 oz coarse ground swiss chocolate coffee to secondary for 8 days.
*Forgot knockout hops, made a hop tea, added to secondary.
-racked to secondary after 2 weeks (FG 1.020).
-kegged after 8 days in secondary (armoa is chocolaty with a mild coffee). (Taste is similar, not bitter from coffee or nib; sweet) FG is only 1.020-disappointing.
ABV 4.0% (plus added vodka)

Excellent result: many high compliments at wedding. Great coffee choice and method (dry hop) and chocolate addition method.
