Now, I'm not quite sure what to do with the cilantro. I'm thinking I'm just gonna throw it in at flameout. Either that or I could put the spice in after fermentation is over to "dry hop" or I could also make a tea and add it. I was wondering if anybody has used this spice in beer with any success and maybe had any suggestions.
