      Hoy,
      
      Thought I should post my first brew since I joined up on this forum. A split batch single hopped low ABV APA.
      
      The grain bill is a downgraded version of my favorite norwegian APA, Voss Oregonian.
      
      Pale Ale Malt 92%
      Vienna 4%
      Munich 4%
      
      I'm aiming at 3,6 % ABV. Fermenting both with WLP028, since Voss Oregonian is most probably fermented with that yeast, or something similar. I've made a clone with that yeast before, and I love it. I find that it gives some fruity esthers, similar to other...

      Let us know how that coconut porter turns out, I've never tried one but perhaps I will brew one someday...
      
      My Coconut Porter is long gone now. IMO it could've had loads more coconut flavour in it. Some ppl noticed the taste at once, others never found the flavour. But when you say it is a porter, everyone thinks about what is probably the norm, robust porter. So I got a lot of comments like it's not sweet enough, it doesn't have long enough aftertaste, even if it's a maxed out brown porter....

      Some years ago I saw a you tube video of a guy having a beer tasting of a coconut porter. I've never tasted the brand he drank or any other coconut porter but I found the idea of the mix quite intriguing.
      
      So here is my attempt. Going to brew it very soon.

      Yes. I'm going to treat them the same way as orange peel or cilantro seeds. Or that's the intent. Bought some coconut yesterday, so I haven't been able to make the tea yet. If the coconut looses it's flavor during cooking, I have to concider putting it in after the primary fermentation.
