    Chocolate espresso stout

    When I made my Mocha Porter, I added 500g of cocao powder at the end of the boil. This worked fine, but I did get some cocao fat residue in the neck of the bottles. Next brew I am going to boil cocao in pan, leave to cool, skim fat and then add at end of boil. It really didn't spoil the beer...

    How Much do you pay for grain and hops??

    I assume Hop and Grape? or is there another hb shop in Darlo? I call in hop and grape when I travel north from Doncaster, if I can and buy over the counter to save postage, I've always been happy with the price and service. Although if you have found somewhere considerably cheaper, then I am...

    Cocoa powder

    Used a box of cocao powder in the Mocha Porter. In the bottle you can see a small "fatty" ring round the neck, floating on the beer. It disappears once poured, the head doesn't last long, at the moment, but it's still very young (about 2 weeks) so that may improve. There's lots of chocolate...
