G'day beernuts. Bought me a Cascade Chocolate Mahogany Porter kit can the other day (was on special for 10 smackers) and some chocolate grain to make a chocolate porter, but was considering adding some sort of orange flavour to make it more jaffa-ey. The guy at my LHBS suggested only adding about 100g of the choc grain, as it is already chocolatey in the kit (I believe), but I didn't ask about adding orange flavour.
Should I use orange zest or just add some orange essence? Would it be better to make the beer as normal without any orange flavouring, but add orange essence when bottling? And how much do you add if adding to the brew?
Also, has anyone done this before?
Cheers!
