I ended up making this today. I used 14oz of coconut and added it to the primary rather than the secondary. I did, however, add the all the hops @ 5mins... oops. I think it will be fine though. I will keep all posted
formula2fast said:I used 32 ounces of coconut water in the boil of mine.
formula2fast said:This is also one that is not boiled to pasturize it, so it retains a lot more flavoring.
Has anyone used unsweetened Coconut Milk? Would you put it in the boil at the last 10 min? Or would you still add to the Secondary?? Very interested in trying something like this.
I have never had any issues with the oils having a negative impact on the beer. I use red wheat in my coconut recipes to help with head retention as well. I toast my coconut, then as soon as it comes out of the oven, put it all on a counter covered in paper towels, and then put another layer over the coconut and pat them down. It soaks up most of the oil.
I'm thinking about adding toasted coconut to a vanilla porter that I have had great success with in the past. What do ya'll think; vanilla coconut porter!?
