    For people who don't know the Cacao Nibs have small seeds which is why having them in a small bag is a good thing as they can clog pipes for kegs or chillers.

    You know, Big Brew Day is this weekend and one of the beer choices is called Dark Inception Porter. The thing that strikes me is it copies your recipe fairly close except for raspberry purée instead of cherry. I’m doing 10 gallons of it this Saturday!

    • @TheHomebrewChallenge

      That sounds great - I'd have picked raspberry over cherry too if it were up to me.

    Blueberry Milk Chocolate stout... sure you've seen David Heath's channel, it's on there from Feb 2018. Made it myself, lovely beer and can only imagine it'd be superb on nitro. Only mod I'd make to it is using cocoa nibs as you've done here vs using the essence in the vid.

    I'm definitely giving this a try. I'm still a rookie but this sounds too good to not take the risk. I don't think I'll do it all in primary though because I don't have a keg, so instead I'll cocoa nib into secondary and then from secondary I'll rack into bottles.

    I am wondering; as enthousiast hobby brewer, and now starting my own one/two day in the week brewery along side my job. Having had a bad day at the brewery getting used to new materials; having the many parts not all fitting togheter, spilling, essentialy just destroying my first few batches. You seem to do al lot of batches; perhaps have plenty routine. But do you have any brew days that just pan out to be total utter crap days? 😁

    • @TheHomebrewChallenge
      @TheHomebrewChallenge  2 года назад

      I’ve been doing this so often I have it down to routine at this point. But along the way:
      ✅ Burned myself with boiling wort
      ✅ Spilled a gallon of finished beer onto the floor
      ✅ Froze my fermenting beer

      I think syrup is an artificial flavour. Might taste a bit harsh after fermentation. Syrup might also have some additives that could retard fermentation.

With the websites i use to create my recipes i struggle to find out how the finished gravity will change when using fruits as adjuncts.... For example i would love to brew a few more sours but i dont know the impact of the fruits on the ABV. Can someone help me out?

      @@stollkopf1 Most bought puree will tell you the brix or specific gravity on the can. You can also look at the sugar content per serving in the can to figure out the total sugar content as well and back into the SG using that. Generally fruit doesn't add much alcohol to a beer because you are also adding water

      @BenSund 2 года назад

      @@stollkopf1 You can figure 46 points for each pound of sugar in your concentrate. So you take your total mass of sugar in g, divide by 454 to get pounds, then multiply that by 46 and divide by the gallons of fluid in your batch. Or take a gravity reading before adding the fruit, then after and then when it's done fermenting and use an ABV calc for the final ABV. Which brew software are you using they should be pretty close.
