Hey there, next week I will be racking my stout to a secondary and was wondering about a few things. I am adding just a bit of cocoa and coffee for some flavor. Do I steep it in a bag in there or just throw it in and let it rest on the bottom? I will be dry hopping it with a bit of simcoe pellets as well...do I steep those? This is my first batch and don't want to jack anything up, but since will will be racking again to a bottling bucket when it's finished, I am thinking that all of that sediment won't matter much.
My second question is about the coffee? do I grind and cold press it before adding it to the secondary in a bag or just throw the beans it.
Has any body ever done that with cocoa nibs? Like, grind them up and steep them in a bag? Thanks for your thoughts. This is my first post here, but I appreciate that fact that experienced brewers on this forum are always willing to take the time and share their knowledge in a non-condescending manner.
Thanks.
