Notes

Ground coffee is added just before oxygenating wort and pitching yeast. Coconut and chocolate added like a dry hop, after primary fermentation is complete. Toast unsweetened coconut on a cookie sheet at 350F for about 10 minutes until medium brown, stirring every 3 minutes, watch carefully last few minutes to avoid burning. Beware of likely clogging from coconut when racking to a keg. Sweetened coconut can be used but not preferred.
