so i am goin to brew with wild rice and cocoa nibs.

i will be roasting both of them. a few questions about wild rice.  what are the properties of wild rice i cant seem to find them on the internet and they are not in beer smith. can some one help out?
and for the cocoa nibs, what is the best way to sanitize cocoa nibs? Will roasting be enough?
 
No idea on rice.  If you have doubts about the roasted cocoa, you could sanitize with vodka for a short time.

If you're putting it in secondary, the alcohol of the beer should be enough.  The fermentation may scrub out a lot of the flavor in primary.
