So this is a solid cone type sugar that goes into the boil in the beginning after the mash, how do you prepare it? chuck the whole thing in, cut it into pieces? Thanks.

it might be too hard to break.Id break it up a little. I dont know how tightly packed it is, so i wouldnt want it sitting on the bottom of the pot burning. Break it up so it dissolves quicker. Just my opinion.
i just cut it up with a butter knife, figured it would dissolve quicker/easier that way. Thanks for the advice.
I used 2lbs of it in a 10 gal batch. I put it in the beginning of the boil but if i was to do it again i would put it in at flame out and make sure it dissolves, I think you'll get the most out of it that way.

It was a great flavor though, almost cinnamon/nutmeg flavor, but a little spicier. Did you find it at a store anywhere? I'd love to add it to another beer in the future!
