Cocoa beans are the seeds of the fruits of cocoa tree. Oval and flat, similar in shape to almonds, they are enclosed in a sour pulp. Purple-brown in colour, cocoa beans contain fats, sugars, colourants, alkaloids and albuminoids.
Cocoa beans are used especially for Stout and Porter styles. They are generally added in the last 10 minutes of boil, but also in mashing or in dry hopping.
