Just tasted this after two years storage... Found one bottle... Wow wow wow.. The chili was almost non existent, but what a huge positive effect months of lagering will do to this beer.
-------------------------------------
Flaked oats: Buy cheap in the supermarked. They are steamed and rolled, thus heat treated. Toast them in the oven until it smells like biscuits :) 180c, 30 min. Mash it with the rest of the malt.
-------------------------------------
1 vanilla bean 10 min boil
20g Habanero chili, roasted and soaked in rum (3 days) - 7 days secondary
1 vanilla bean 3 days in rum - 7 days secondary
10g Oak chips 3 days in rum - 7 days secondary
40g Cacao nibs 3 days in rum - 7 days secondary
Add ingredients to a cup of rum of your choice (i.e. Havana club). Make sure the rum covers the ingredients and Let it soak for some days.
When ready, use a colander or something similar to pour the rum into the fermentor (either to secondary or late in the process, just before bottling).
For a hint of coffee, add:
Coarsely ground beans to the mash, or
Brewed long black coffee or espresso to the boil, or
Brewed long black coffee or espresso to secondary before bottling, or
Coarsely ground beans to the rum
