Notes

Added 8 oz of Dutch process (alkali) cocoa powder to about 3 cups of boiling water. Stirred to make a paste and added to the fermentor on day 7 after dumping trub/racking.

Added 1/4 tsp of 10% phosphoric acid per 5 gallons of brewing water.

Kept the bittering hops a little low due to the added bitter cocoa nibs.

Cold steeped the chocolate and roasted malts for 24 hours and added during final 5 to 10 minutes of boil.

Added 3 tsp of mint extract to one 5 gallon keg. It seemed to get stronger as it aged.

Needs more mouthfeel next time. Increase lactose to 2 lbs Reduce flaked barley by 1 pound and add 2 pounds of flaked oats to get the mouthfeel.
