Notes
1st attempt at a brown ale using harvested chestnuts - make sure it's the spiky ones! Horse chestnuts aren't meant to be eaten
Gonna cut an X on the chestnuts and then roast on some BBQ coals. Crush and separate into shells and inner nut . Put the flesh into a processor and blitz
Add the nut shell in a hop bag during mash and add the blitzed flesh along with the malts
This is an experiment I don't know how much. if any fermentable sugar will be released by the chestnuts - My SG should show that
From reading it's worth adding the shells to get some more smokey notes
Also adding in some roasted Cacao nibs 1/2 lightly roasted, 1/2 darker roasted - should help balance the sweet chestnut
125g - 20 mins at 127 C

The malt extract is just to bump up the abv a little as it's going to be a Christmas beer. Northdown hops for the dry hop stage came from helping with our local breweries harvest, adding in just because!
