Notes

Base recipe modified from various recipes for Fuller's London Porter. Originals were 76% pale, 12% brown, 10% crystal, 2% choc; or 70 pale, 14 brown, 9 crystal, 7 choc.

IBU target of original was 33. ABV 5.2%

Coconut needs to be lightly toasted and then brushed or rubbed with paper towel to remove some of the oil that will probably seep out. Lactose should be boiled with some water. Both should be added to primary fermenter after yeast has been dumped (hook up CO2 to minimise air introduction during this step). Purge coconut with CO2 before adding.

Fermentation profile should be controlled at 20 throughout primary and secondary. Wait until FG has been reached before chilling, then fining. Chill slowly over 3 days if possible.
