Cold steeping 7lb. of marshmallow root in 1 gallon of water and hot steeping about 1.5 cups of toasted cacao nibs in 1 gallon hot water. The cacao nibs were lightly pulsed in a coffee grinder to break them up a bit. The hot steeping will be for about 15 minutes or so unless it looks like they need more time.
The cold steep will be overnight with about 2g of K-Meta in the water to help deal with any wild yeast.
The Hot water will go into the refrigerator and in the morning I will scoop off the bits of fat floating at the top as best as I can get it... maybe it will make it into a 1gallon carboy with a spout and I'll empty from the bottom. I have to see if I have another carboy available to do that.
