Sounds interesting. I will give it a try. Not that I am drinking Mocha but for friends that come over.

My take on Mocha
This is how I make my version of 'Mocha'.
1. Start with half the normal amount of coffee in the PF and tamp it down lightly.
2. Add a teaspoon of cacao nibs sprinkled evenly over.
3. Add the other half of the coffee and tamp as usual.
Proceed as normal, but with a 10-second pause in the middle. In other words a 10-second pre-infusion, but slightly later than normal.
It adds 'chocolate notes' without adding the chocolate muddiness that adding cocoa powder does.
Judging by my wife, some people may not notice the addition.
