Hello!
I got a challenge from a friend of mine to brew a decent Extract ONLY stout. That means no steeping grains at all. Only a combination of Extracts allowed. Additions of sugars/maple syrup/coffee and other additives are also accepted. Just not more steeping grains.
Since this is new territory i now need help. Has anyone does this? And if not what estimated guesses do you have as of what Extracts should be used?
Im thinking of doing a Light Pale Extract/Dark Extract/Extra dark extract with same amounts of all from Muntons. Would this be reasonable? Or could i do a heavy stout more in style with a Russian imperial going with 100% Extra dark extract?
Thankful for all tips and suggestions!
