Taste Notes
Cocoa husks bring a bitter slightly astringent flavor/mouthfeel to the party, cocoa nibs add a smoother characteristic
Won: Carolina Quarterly Brew Off 1stNotes
As per BJCP - Robust Porter should have no roasted barley flavor…Switch to flaked barley
Need to increase mouthfeel/body - as per Piedmont brewers cup
-Increase mash temp (158-162)
-Decrease mash thickness
-Add more non-fermentible malts (dextrine, oats, barley)
