Notes

Strike water per above instructions

Mash temp should be about 152F

Let mash of barley and oats sit for 60 min

Rinse grains

Take gravity measurement

Start boil

Add brown sugar and rice solids

Add hops per time table - only Magnum and Fuggles used at this point

Add one whirlflock tab 50 min into boil

Cool wort pitch yeast and if wanted Clarity Ferm

Saturate with O2

Ferment until no change in gravity

Transfer into secondary

Add Fuggles

Add cocoa nibs

How to add the marshmallows: you will need one sewing machine needle with an eye large enough to use new fishing line.

String 10 marshmallows per line, give yourself enough line so closest marshmallow to hand is about 8".

Remove needle from end of line.

With the line of marshmallows over the secondary, take a heat gun (not open flame) and toast marshmallows working heat gun from bottom marshmallow up. Toast one at a time. If they slide off from heat no biggie. Don't burn, light or dark brown.

Let sit for 10 days

Transfer to bottles or keg
