I tried a recipe using 8 oz of black tea as an adjunct but something in the tea kept it from carbonating in the bottle, so I had a caffeinated, slightly too sweet, flat beer. I will probably go for a Heffe or Lambic next batch. I highly recommend a copper wort chiller if you don't already have one. Cuts the cool down time between sparging and pitching dramatically, and you don't have to use ice (which is not sterile).
