Notes

This is a modified version of the recipe going around. Using 5 pounds of extract to bump up the gravity, since I can't fit enough grain in my system. I use 4 oz of coco nibs and leave out the bittersweet chocolate since I prefer the flavor and it's easier. Recipe calls for Sumatra and Kona, but again I swapped out a local roasters coffee that I liked the flavor profile in both cases. The coffee in the secondary is nitro cold-brewed using a whip-it like device. Use coffee that has low acidity and a sweet smell and lighter roast.

Mash @ 155deg F. for mouthfeel and sweetness on the finish
