This is only my 5th brew but it will be my first original recipe....and also my first porter. Since I'm still new at this it is an extract recipe....but I would love to hear all input from all brewers. The yeast has yet to be determined. Also the Southern Pecan portion of this porter is coming from a Southern Pecan coffee from a local coffee shop. I'm pretty sure I am going to cold steep the beans and add to the secondary. What are your thoughts on amount of coffee and when to add it to the brew....wort, secondary, bottling? Also what are your thoughts on a yeast nutrient?
