I made this in the summer; I let it sit around and bottle condition for about 4 weeks, the began doling out samples and tastes. I've gotten nothing but positive responses - and more importantly, I enjoyed drinking the beer.
My Mocha Porter:
5 gal. batch
9 lb. Amber LME
12 oz. Flaked Oats
1 lb. chocolate malt
8 oz. black patent malt
12 oz. crystal 60
1.5 oz. Bullion 1 hr
.5 oz. Wilamette 30 min
.5 oz. Wilamette 5 min
1.5 cup cocoa powder 10 min.
2 vanilla beans primary
I am very interested in this recipe. Is there any changes you would have done to it? Also, what is your thoughts on instead of vanilla maybe using pecans? Thoughts..
