Notes

Adapted from Brewdog's Imperial Coffee Stout.

400ml cold brew coffee added to primary along with 150g of cacao nibs soaked in approximately 150ml of congac. This addition was made on day 8 after soaking the cacao nibs for 3-4 days and brewing the cold brew for 24 hours.

Lactose can be added to end of boil to round off bitterness/add sweetness. My thought is that the lactose sweetness and higher FG will counteract the bitterness from the roasted/dark malts and the coffee/caco - can remove lactose if switching to a lower attenuation yeast.
