adding vanilla, coffee, and cocoa to brew?
Posted: Fri Jan 10, 2014 10:10 pm
I'm working on creating my second all grain brew (5 gallon)...a milk stout.
I wanna add vanilla extract, cocoa and coffee to the same brew.
So my questions are:
1) what is the minimum amount of vanilla/ cocoa nibs i should add to get to a mild cocoa/vanilla flavor?
2. Same for the coffee, what amount. Adding...what type of coffee should i use? French roast?
**Also**
I'm thinking I'll add the above during the secondary fermentation process. Is this a good Idea? Is there better timing?
