Just brewed a "White Stout" - Looking for feedback on additives
I recently tried a "White Stout" at Track 7 brewery in Sacramento, CA. It completely hit me off guard when I saw the color of it and tasted coffee and chocolate.
Trying to replicate, my brother and a couple friends just brewed a batch of what is now a pale "stout".
Current plans are to pull the yeast off about 7-10 days in and add vodka soaked cacao nibs, leaving them for the remainder of fermentation.
About 24 hours before racking to kegs, we plan on adding whole coffee beans to the fermenter. Idea being that the whole beans will provide the coffee flavor without imparting too much color.
Has anyone experimented with adding coffee and/or chocolate flavor without imparting too much color?
