Notes

After fermentation is complete, in separate mesh bags, add to the fermentor 8 oz (227 g) of roasted cacao nibs and one vanilla bean split lengthwise. Leave the cacao nibs in contact with the beer for 1–3 days, tasting daily and removing cacao nibs when desired flavor profile is achieved. Condition for 2–3 weeks while aging with the vanilla bean.
