Notes

1) Do a 2-step yeast starter, starting 6 DAYS before brew day. Used the brewersfriend calc: https://www.brewersfriend.com/yeast-pitch-rate-and-starter-calculator/
2) Add Fermcap prior to boil
3) Add Lactose and Maltose at 10min left
4) Add Candi Syrup at 5min left
5) Chill to 60F
6) Fermentation schedule:

60F for 4 days
64F for 4 days
<likely racking now>
68F til finished
7) Make Cacao bean tincture for 3 days
3 days prior to racking to secondary, roast & soak cocoa nibs
bake nibs on cookie sheet @250° for 12 min
soak nibs in vodka to cover (12-16 oz), for 3 days
8) Rack to secondary after Gravity stops crashing, adding Cacao tincture, and PMB. Leave for 7-10 days
9) Add PMB when kegging
10) Planning to put on CO2 outside the keezer and carb/age warm (~75F) for 3+ wks until the Dec 11th MoM meeting
