I THOUGHT on a NB video on their website, on BrewTV, I watched a stout-based episode where they made a chocolate stout using some semi-sweet Baker's chocolate. They used probably about 4 ounces and melted it in the microwave with some hot wort in a mixing bowl and then added it to the boil towards the end. However, I've read/heard you're not supposed to use anything with preservatives in beer. I am not sure if there are preservatives in there or not, but I have some in my pantry and wanted to try it in an upcoming chocolate stout. The ingredients for semi-sweet Baker's Chocolate are: semi-sweet chocolate (chocolate, sugar, cocoa butter, soy lecithin [emulsifier], vanilla extract.
Would you use this, and if so, how much? The bar I have is 4 oz.
