Mocesso Bock
I saw a reciepe for a beer that used coffee as an added flavoring. This really appealed to me so I used some coffee that I flavored with some Hersheys Dark Chocolate syrup along with Torani Hazelnut syrup. Also used organic cane sugar (raw granulated) in coffee before adding to wort.

Steep: | I first steeped the grains by bringing water to near boil, turning off the heat and letting it soak for about an hour. I bag my grains so that it makes for easier extraction from wort mixture. After removing and draining of grain bags, I brought wort back to boiling, adding the dark malt extract while stirring wort, and let boil for 15 min. before begining the hopps process. I preffer a less bitter beer and have found that by shorting hopps time in boil I can acheive the desired result. Boiled 1oz. Halletauer for 45 min., Adding Pearl 0.5oz. at the 20 min. remaining, and second 0.5 oz. at 5-10 min. remaining mark. after completion of boil I added coffee mixture to wort. Note: Before adding wort to the Fermentation Bottle. I cooled it down first while still in the brew pot by means of a cold water bath. | |||||||
