Notes
This recipe is heavily based on EPIC chocolate coffee stout, with the addition of lactose; Hop replacement using Fuggles instead of Chinook/Cascade/Nugget - Fuggles produces a more UK 'Youngs Chocolate Stout' characteristic to the beer; Also reduced base malt amounts to reduce alcohol content.
Note that this recipe is for 11.5L / 3 Gallons making it more manageable with household pots and equipment, and more beneficial to your health!
Cacao Nibs were soaked in vodka - just enough to cover nibs - and left in fridge for 4 days (recommended method for obtaining fullest chocolate flavour)
Espresso Ground Coffee Beans were steeped using a hop bag in 500mL of pre-boiled cold water in fridge for 24 hours - alternatively you could hang it in the fermenter for 24 hours while cold crashing.
Both steeped coffee water (coffee removed) and cacao nibs (including vodka) were added 36 hours after primary fermentation had started - just as primary was slowing down to minimise loss of flavour.
