Main purpose is to dry them a little more and remove as much of the coconut oils that still reside....

Hey SHB, Been in the g'borough the last 16 years, know Dimo VERY well... now out in Doreen for shits and giggles Coconut is one of my favs, so its a goer... And the mad scientist is wanting to go try some fresh stuff... I like creating layers and subtleties, so figuring out what does and does...

Actually thinking that I will do both in seperate secondaries... Have not worked with coconut before so best to get and idea of what works lol.... I will pre-roast the flakes regardless

Will do... have actually decided to split the porter.... Half for bottling, the other half to be split into a number of 2.5lt secondary kegs... So will throw different adjuncts into each (including the coconut flakes) and see what I win lol. The pastry stout this time around should be around...

Right now, a smoked American Porter... Its happily bubbling away right now :-) .... I am dabbling with the idea of some coconut flakes in secondary, have not made that call yet :-) This weekend is Imperial Pastry Stout weekend..... my favorite hahaha
