Notes

Toasting the pecans brings out more flavor and will help remove oil from the nuts. This process might take some time to complete, but it is worth it. To speed up the process, spread them out over two cookie sheets.
Toast coarsely chopped pecans in oven on parchment paper at 325 F for about 10 minutes. Do not grease cookie sheet or use any oil. Do not let the pecans burn. Remove sheet from oven. Place nuts in paper bags and let them rest. The paper bags will soak up oil. While one batch of pecans is resting in bags, put the other sheet in the oven to toast. Alternate in this manner until the bags are not soaking up any more oil.
Place pecans in nylon bags for use in fermentor.
