    Too Much Cocoa In My Jaffa Molasses Dark Ale?

    I've only used a small amount of cocoa to a porter before and unfortunately it effects the head retention dramatically due to the protein, this will also leave a haze in your beer especially in such large quantities. Also molasses is a very odd flavour in beer that needs to be used carefully...

    How Does This Sound

    Try adding 200g Dextrose and making the beer @ 23L, and steep around 15 - 30g of fuggles hops for some aroma if thats all your after, your beer should be around 4.5% then
