- Tasting Notes
- Tasted very awesome, strong chocolate notes, cross between milk and bitter.
8oz bakers unsweetened chocolate ground up in a blender (i have a ninja, it rocks) then tossed in BOIL at 10-5 min remaining. then add 8oz lactose with it.
6 Madagascar Vanilla Beans slit and stripped and soaked in 1/4 cup vodka for 4-5 days, then tossed in secondary for 14 days (or more if you wish). 16oz Colombian Coffee (can't remember brand i used) Cold steeped in pre-boiled water for 2 days in fridge. occasionally giving it a shake. added before bottling, strain first. My original recipe i only used 2 beans and 8oz coffee, it turned out awesome, very very awesome, however, the above is what i would change it to. maybe add another 4oz of roasted barley.
however, the older it got the more roast i started picking up.
i seriously need to make 10 gallons of this.
mashed at 150 for 60 minutes. *EDIT*
