Notes
General
I was getting off notes in my beers I have tried to remove the chlorine using a cadmium tablet. This was added to 15L of cold water which I used through out the brewing process.
Mash
Mash for 60mins.
Boil
Add the crushed cocoa nibs in the last 20 mins.
Add the Irish moss at the last 15 mins.
Fermentation
Rack the beer and add the second load of cocoa nibs, these should be left in there for a week minimum.
The brew use's a cocoa slurry, this is were the cocoa nibs are crushed and boiled in water. Once cooled it should be added to the racked beer.
Vanilla this is using a vanilla pod split and scrape the insides out. Add all this directly into the racked beer.
The beer was racked off for 2 weeks.
