- Tasting Notes
- Smooth as a baby\'s bottom! Excellent coffee flavor that\'s not overpowering.
Add the molasses to the start of the boil to make it easier to stir in. First wort hop with the columbus for great non-harsh bittering.
Cold brew 1lb of coarse coffee grounds with 10quarts of filtered water the night before packaging for around 16 hours. Strain coffee and pour into bottling/packaging bucket when adding sugar or straight into keg if kegging.
I fermented for 14 days or so and then left it in secondary for a few months over Christmas.
Strong coffee aroma. Taste starts with coffee, moves into fruit and chocolate, ends with bitter coffee. SMOOTH the entire time.
