After buying Dan Toomes curry guy bible I bought some coconut flour which adds depth to a passanda curry. Has anyone used it in beer making? Maybe in a tropical stout?

Recon there might be too much fat in it. I'd add malibu or something similar.

I've made coconut cider and coconut wheat ale.

Did you use coconut flour?

No. For the wheat ale I used dried unsweetened coconut chunks and for the cider I used a whole coconut.

The dregs of the coconut cider.
A bucket of the finest chunder....

I’m going to add a couple of tsp’s of coconut flour to a glass of stout and see what it tastes like.
I'd wet it out first with a splash of Stout...like adding corn flour to a Chinese.

My wife also suggested Malibu and I think Rum so Piñata Colada Stout might work.

If I may ask a philosophical question here; WHY?
Came across an old tin of Cherry Blossom ox-blood shoe polish the other day. It's nearly full, but it's all dried up and cracked and I doubt there's much tallow left in it. I wonder if anyone has ever tried adding this to a lambic.
Only joking, CC. It's just that coconut flavoured beer thoughts put the willies up me!!

Anyway added a tsp of coconut flour to a small glass of stout. Taste not bad but too grainy result 2/10. Going to make a West Indian Stout and just add oak chips soaked in Rum.

I'd take a shine to that. Soon polish it off.
Well, never had a lambic and in fact just looked it up on Wikipedia. From the description I'd say a dab of boot polish is hardly likely to spoil the flavour.

Ha.
Curious, I always thought 'chunder' was a NZ/Aussie expression. Part of the lexicon here. 'Had a good old chunder in the pub car park' sort of thing...
Try a bottle of Kriek - cherry flavoured lambic. I am sure you will be converted!
Not sure what would be worse - cherry or cherry blossom...
Did you hear about the man who ate a can of polish?
It killed him, but he did have a good finish!
