For my chocolate cherry wine, I used 85 g of cocoa powder in 1 gallon. According to the label, the cocoa powder is 10% fat, so I would have 8.5 g of cocoa butter (fat) in 1 gallon of wine.Cocoa nibs are a low fat product. Most of it is fiber which never solubilizes. Yes much of the flavor is in the oil, but again how much oil. .01 gram? ,,, This is in the range seen with peanut or soy oil.
Extracts/ aroma compounds will be similar. Effective concentration pulled into a wine might be 0.001gram.
I know Crazy Richards peanut powder worked in my peanut-banana wine. I infused the powder in pineapple juice for 2 weeks. 1/4 cup of each and you can really taste it. Almost over the banana taste.View attachment 92300Might this work?
OOH. Thanks for this info. Always appreciate the details.I know Crazy Richards peanut powder worked in my peanut-banana wine. I infused the powder in pineapple juice for 2 weeks. 1/4 cup of each and you can really taste it. Almost over the banana taste.
I kept that in the refrigerator btw while the bananas fermented for 2 weeks then added it with a campden tablet when racking it.OOH. Thanks for this info. Always appreciate the details.
I made banana wine and after the first fermenting was done I added the peanut powder that had been mixed with a little pineapple juice and sitting in the refrigerator for those 2 weeks. After I racked the wine I added the peanut-pineapple solution to the wine with a campden tablet and let sit for another 2 weeks. I added a gelatin mixture to it and let it sit another 2 weeks. It is so clear and taste so good that I went on and bottled it. If I could of added bacon to it, I'd of called it The Elvis. Peanut butter-banana-jelly and bacon.
I found my notes and how I did everything in my phone. 3 tablespoons of peanut powder and 1 cup of pineapple juice. If you want the whole thing, let me know. Maybe text or email it to you.OOH. Thanks for this info. Always appreciate the details.
