Adding a coconut aroma and flavour to a beer.
I am wondering the differences and outcomes between these options.
If anyone has dabbled with coconut before let me know.
A) toasted unsweetened coconut flakes at flameout.
B) toasted unsweetened coconut flakes in secondary
C) Coconut extract in secondary or bottling.
D) Any combination.
I have heard and read many things, I understand the oil situation, but have recently heard that if toasted it will eliminate some major oils when adding to secondary.
Either way, I would like a mild-strong coconut presence in my beer and would love more feedback.
