    When to Add Wildflower Honey

    I'm brewing a honey red wheat beer tomorrow and had a question about when to add the 1.5 lbs of wildflower honey. Should I add it after I mash and pull the bag (BIAB) out, right before I start my boil? I emailed the company and they haven't responded back. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Should I add cacao nibs and coffee to this oatmeal stout recipe?

    Thanks for all the replies! I'm going to try the cold coffee at bottling idea. How many ounces of coffee beans should I use and how much water? I have a coffee grinder and want to make sure I use enough coffee beans. It's going to be a 5 gallon batch.

    What does a higher O.G mean?

    Unfortunately, my kettle is only 30 quarts (7.5 gallons) and usually the best I can do is 5 gallons. I have to use fermcap-s because it's so close to the top. Think I might need to upgrade my kettle soon. Sent from my iPad using Home Brew
