Ideas for a Coconut RIS ?


Recommended Posts

Hey everyone,

While my 6 different beers are fermenting in bottles I was wondering if anyone could give me some hints regarding a Coconut flavoured RIS? 

Would I be advised to rack the stout after 4 days of primary ferment into another vessel then add coconut pieces, then cont fermenting for another week or 2? 

Any ideas or help appreciated!

The Island Toasted Coconut Porter was a great beer.  The coconut is a great addition.  Tastes like liquid Cherry Ripe.

That recipe uses a 250g packet of desiccated coconut.  You toast it in a fry pan over low heat and add it to the beer like a dry hop.  I think it would go well in the RIS.  I do not know how the coconut flavour would age.  At six weeks in the keg, my Island Toasted Coconut Porter still tastes very coconutty.
