Cocoa Bean Husk 1 lb
$ 2.31
This is the outer shell of the cocoa bean, and what you winnow out from the nibs.
Used in soaps and scrubs. Some people also use it as a cocoa "tea".
It makes a great addition to compost but does NOT make a good mulch. With anything more than the lightest sprinkling (1/16-1/8") it tends to form an anaerobic mycelium mat that smothers everything under it include shrub and even some small trees.
I can't guarantee whether the mixed cocoa husk will come raw, roasted, organic, conventional and/or mixed, nor the suitability of any application you may have in mind. It is offered as is.
Roasted husk will come from a mixture of organic and conventional cocoa beans and again we do not guarantee the suitability of any application you may be using it for.
The roasted option is just that and is more suitable for brewing whether that is as a part of a blend in tea (as a straight tea it is terribly astringent). I don't recommend it for brewing beer. There is a distinct lack of cocoa flavor, a ton of not good astringency. Use our Brewer's Blend for beer brewing.
All husk is packaged in bulk so if you order 5 x 1 lb you may receive one 5 lb bag.
