I've been all grain brewing quite a few years. I've Chocolate Porter recipe I've been playing with a couple of those years and it's getting pretty close. But I'd like to lower the alcohol without losing body.
The ways I can think of doing it are less 2H, more water, or increasing the mashing temperature. Or a mixture of the three. The last could be difficult figuring. Complicating the problem is I add in about 1.5 liters of Vodka that has 2 kilos of nibs that have been infusing for 3 days before production. It sounds a lot but it's a 3 bbl batch. Any suggestions from anyone having done this.
