Hello,
Forgive me if this has been answered before. Surely it has, but I can't find a post about it. I recently brewed a brown ale (the "Nutcastle" from BCS), and I was thinking of trying to make it a really nutty nut brown by putting it in a secondary on some nuts. I was thinking walnuts but I dunno. I came across mention comments on another posts that mention the oils in the nuts being an issue. Someone said something about pressing the oil out somehow.
I would appreciate any and all info or advice about resting a beer on nuts. Bad idea? Should I just get some extract or something?
Thanks in advance!
