Free cocoa husks

[dcalnan]

If anyone is looking to do a chocolate stout or experimenting in the near future, I'm after getting 10kgs of them, so that's 20x500g(the figure I've seen online for in the mash). Im going to brewcon so I could bring some up with me if people wanted.

Just a quick one..... I got couple black sacks of these before look great around the flower beds but anyways the untreated cocoa nibs have salmonella its mainly on the husk so id be carefull about putting them into anything without nuking them ect.

The boil should kill salmonella??

[imark]

Assuming it's not already been treated. I think holding at 65C for a few minutes is enough to kill salmonella in chicken so would expect similar would be OK.

Lots of veg and nuts can contain samonella as well, but I'm planning on putting the husks in the mash so it will be at ~65 for an hour and then boiled so no problems, if I was doing it in secondary I would definitely treat it.
I made a tea with some last night and it was really nice.

Do they impart a strong cocoa flavour?
I'd love to get 500g from you tomorrow at brewcon. My name is Brendan sewell. Hopefully I'll see you there. Thanks

Yeah there's a really strong cocoa flavour off them.

Only 6 have asked for them so far, I've enough for 20. But if people want 1kg I could do that too.
