relatively new brewer here. getting ready to brew the NB petite saison. taking a look at the reviews i noticed several that added orange peel / orange rind. any tips how to best do this - @ 10min ? @ flameout ? rind ?, peels ?, dried ?, fresh ?

thanks for all tips.

also, am giving some thought to treating a gallon with cacao nibs for a week or two after the primary. anyone given this a go ?
 
Add only the zest form an orange. Boil it for just a couple minutes and add it after fermentation is done.
 
I just brewed a Saison (diff recipe, though), and it had me add both bitter and sweet orange peel at flameout (1/4 oz of each, along with coriander and grains of paradise). Can't tell you how much flavor they imparted yet, though, as its still in primary right now!
