Chocolate orange in stout

[ryanshelton]

Im brewing a chocolate orange stout and instead of adding orange peel and chocolate could I not just add a terrys chocolate orange? Im sure there are a million reasons why but I cant think of one :lol:

The chocolate orange will have lots of fats in it that you don't want in your beer, these would have to be skimmed off post boil. Better to use high cocoa dark chocolate or cocoa powder and orange skin. There will still be fats in this but not as much as in milk chocolate.

Thanks for that, I had decided against it anyway as my natural side said do it naturally

Ill be using cocoa powder and the orange peel from 20 or so oranges :thumb:
