Hi all!
Brewing up a beer today and had a few questions as my mash sits @153 for an hour.
Here's the recipe (5.5 gal):
8.5# munich
1# flaked oats
10.6 chocolate malt
10.6 oz roasted barley
1 oz galena @ 50 min
S-04 with starter
Adding Oregon blackberry purée (3#) after wort cooled
Adding 2? Cups cocoa to boil.
A few questions
1.) how do I account for the increased gravity with the purée?
2.) is the cocoa addition enough/at the right time?
3.) how well will s04 ferment in high 50s?
Thanks guys!
Edit: adding cocoa with the bittering hops
