I put this together based on some recipes I saw online and some things that have worked for me.
11 lb 2 row
3 lb dark Munich
8 oz carastan
8 oz crystal 90
8 oz chocolate malt
8 oz brown malt
5 oz roasted barley
8 oz flaked oats
Mash 60 min at 155
1.5 oz northern brewer 60 minutes
.5 oz northern brewer 1 min
Yeast: Wyeast 1028.
Thinking of 1-2 oz freshly ground coffee and either cherries or cherry juice (32 oz?) in the secondary. I don't want the cherry to be overwhelming or too sour, so hopefully a moderate amount + crystal malts will work.
I think with the juice this will yield about a 10.24% abv beer. The grains alone would get me to about 1.090 OG, assume the juice adds another .010 to bring me to 1.100, with about 77% attenuation that gets me to 1.022 or 10.24%. Any feedback would be appreciated - thanks!
