I recently brewed the Chocolate Milk Stout from Northern Brewer. They supplied 4 oz of cocoa nibs with the recipe kit. I was unsure how to sanitize these so I looked up the PDF online for the extract kit (I'm using the AG kit), and it just says to add them to the secondary. No mention of sanitizing them.
I've heard from others to soak in vodka, but I don't get paid until Friday and I'm kinda on a timeline. Would boiling render these nibs less flavorful? Anyone have any experience with them? What about a long soak in Starsan?
All suggestions welcomed!
