Notes

This is a clone of Sexual Chocolate by Foothills Brewing Co., as found on TastyBrew.com blog (http://www.tastybrew.com/forum/thread/154676); as the finalized with a few tweeks to the recipe.

1: The blog said to NOT add cocoa powder after trial due to graininess in the final beer and the need to chill and re-rack, but he used 6 oz at secondary, dry. I shall use 3 oz, mixed with 6 oz boiled water that will hopefully moisten the cocoa and reduce graininess in the final product and encourage settling during secondary.

I'm going to use homemade chocolate syrup in place of Hershey's Special Dark Chocolate Syrup at kegging.
My Homebrew Supply Store did not sell Wyeast anymore; so while the original recipe uses Denny's Favorite 50, the closest strain by White Labs is California V. So, we'll see how this goes!
