I brewed this about a month ago. Half of he cocoa beans were steeped and half went into the primary. I let it sit in the primary for one week and the secondary for two weeks (with some cocoa powder). It has been conditioning for two weeks now. I will try it this week.

    Wyeast 1450 Denny’s Favorite 50

    This terrific all-round yeast can be used for almost any beer style, and is a mainstay of one of our local homebrewers, Mr. Denny Conn. It is unique in that it produces a big mouthfeel and accentuates the malt, caramel, or fruit character of a beer without being sweet or under-attenuated.
