if you want it sweeter just mash higher like 154

 

[BrewerRick]

fermenting properly a bit light but still pretty good flavour so far. few more days then will add the chocolate syrup to the secondary at 10c.

How did it turn out buddy? I'm thinking of doing a Mole Style Stout myself here in a couple weeks

Shoulda done last month so it'd be ready for Christmas. Could of called it "Holy Mole"!

Mole has like 30 ingredients in it! I'd love to see your recipe.

I bought my chocolate and dried cayenne peppers yesterday, looking at maybe seeping some crushed roasted pumpkin seeds, and im still looking at a couple more chilies for it!

 

[OkanaganMike]

Don't know if I'd use cayenne as thats a fairly hot pepper with little flavour. Without looking up mole recipe's, I'd prolly suggest more earthy chilis lie Ancho, Pasilla or Guajillo. I've never done a chili beer yet though but love the taste of various chilis in my cooking and BBQ'ing so take this for what its worth.

 

[Joshua Peterson]

Heck yeah thanks, i take a bit of advice from anyone and everyone as i brain storm what im going to do.

I had a Utah pale ale over the summer that had a touch of cayenne in it, it had just a bit of a kick to it where you knew it was in there. I'll probably just add one or two of the dried cayenne chilies to secondary.

A dude i'm friends with on Untappd had a mole stout a few days ago, description of the brew says it has Ancho, Guajillo, and Anaheim peppers in it. He didn't say it was spicy, so im kinda looking to had a touch of heat to mine. I'll add some Pasilla to it also buddy!

Dang, now i want to do an all Jalapeno & Cocoa Nibs Stout!

 

[OkanaganMike]

I love jalapenos for flavor and mid kick but don't think I'd like them in a beer. Never had one though and wouldn't make a whole batch on a questionable taste without trying it first. Lots of folks make jalapeno beer though so it comes down to personal taste. Chili and chocolate work awesome together, again, maybe not Jalapeno but your cayenne would work if not going for that "Mole" taste.

 

[Joshua Peterson]

What it is looking like right now for my "All Chilies Mole Stout"

Pepper List
60 Minute Boil
1. half pound of fresh jalapenos
2. one ounce dried Ancho
3. one ounce dried Guajillo
4. two whole fresh Serrano's
5. half pound of fresh Anaheim
6. one whole fresh Caribe pepper
7. one whole fresh Fresno pepper

Secondary
1. two whole dried cayenne peppers

Mexican mole stout me thinks. Or fire breathing dragon stout haha I wouldn't bring my virgin chilly lips near that fiery stout mate! Hay to each their own I say brew on brother

 

[OkanaganMike]

Holy Mackerel! Thats a lot of chilis!
Make it and let us know how it went. Don't forget the other mole ingredients like mexican chocolate, orange peel, for the almond maybe toast a pound of oats and add some brown malt. Heck Cumin and Coriander would be good too but I'd hold off on the garlic and probably the oregano. Some Special B would add to the raisin flavor.

Hmmm. I'm getting excited about this and may try one myself now lol

 

[BrewerRick]

Its a hit here in mexico really lets you enjoy the taste of real cacao without a harsh flavour its a bit sweet actually.

the rest is on facebook, the vids in spanish though https://www.facebook.com/WickedHopsbrewing/ vids and rest mostly for sh$ts and giggles

 

[Ozarks Mountain Brewery]

nice beer, congrats

 

[Joshua Peterson]

Right on buddy!

 

[GFHomebrew]

Yep that's a flash looking beer. Like a top shelf beverage I'm sure it tastes the same as well!

Is the recipe public ? Sounds like something i'd like to brew.

 

[GFHomebrew]

Isn't that it at top of thread?

yes if you need any tips let me know. This cacao compared to many is citric so i had to wing it a bit and it turned out pretty nice. My brother helped me design it as to compliment the Mayan culture and let the cacao come through without the bitter finish. its nice and balanced.
