I used Unsweetened organic flaked coconut. Bought from Whole foods Market
I toasted the coconut in oven at 325 degrees for 20-25 min. Till golden brown
added lose to secondary for 14 days.
Lost 1.5- 2 gallons of beer to trub in secondary next time maybe use bag to be able to drain out before racking

This recipe is turned out real well
went down really well at local home brew club meeting
Is there a partial grain recipe. I am so not equipped to do all grain and do not aspire to be. I admire the practice, but I just don't have the space or time. I use DMEs and grains and hops for my beers. So, my question is, can you break this down for a grains with extract recipe?
Would be awesome if you could...
Thanks,

Picked up my Porter Extract Kit yesterday,,along with vanilla beans. I was/am going to do a Coconut Porter with vanilla beans? Soaked in Bourbon? Do the vanilla and coconut mix well together or should I do one or the other?
added 2lbs toasted coconut chips and 2 vanilla beans soaked in bourbon to mine last night, letting that sit for about 10 days then either kegging or bottling, can't decide yet. Not sure if I will drink fast enough to keg it.
how much bourbon did you use?
What temperature did you ferment at? Cheers
just picked up a 6 gallon bucket for my Coconut Porter....planning on soaking it in Gentleman Jack I have two bags of coconut,,,,which equals a tad over one lb,is this too much?

Quick question: when I've entered this into a recipe calculator, it's coming out much darker than a "normal" porter. I'm happy to make a non-conforming beer, but I wanted to make sure this was right before I bought my ingredients.

just turned on the oven to toast the coconut.....will soak it in the JD till tomorrow afternoon and then put it in to steeping bags with some marbles. toss in the two vanilla beans and let it ferment in secondary for two weeks, sound good? am I missing something?

Duncan83865 said:This is probably for a different forum, but I was always under the impression that you didn't want to use a 6.5 gallon bucket for a secondary due to too much headspace. That's why I was curious if you could throw the coconut in the primary rather than trying to squeeze it through a carboy? I dry-hop in the primary all the time, but I was wondering if there was a reason not to do this with coconut.
