Notes: - Balanced profile. Tan, lasting very creamy head, good lacing velvety. Good drinking stout.
- Mill the roasted grains, to get the best color and flavor go for an extremely fine grind, almost like dust, I use a coffee grinder.
*Bag and add the roasted grains, chocolate, roasted barley and black malt after the 90 minute mash rest is complete. This avoids lowering the mash pH too far and reduces the chance of astringency which can occur from over-steeping highly roasted grains. Once the 90 minute mash is over give it a good stir to mix it into the existing grain and hold for ~15 minutes; no more than 30 min. Squeezing the bag will result in releasing a little more extract but lower pH and give a harsh flavor. so avoid this.
- WLP004 English ale yeast adds a bit of fruitness in the background and is a bit sweeter. WLP007 Irish yeast has zero sweetness and comes out dry with a bit of a "twang". Both yeasts make this recipe a very good, smooth drinking stout.
- I go for a lower carbonatation and typically serve at a cool but definitely not cold temp, around 60° to bring out the flavors.
I've been told this tastes like chocolate milk. Very smooth and velvety. |

Notes: I see a little silhouette-o of a beer,
Gotta chug, gotta pound, gotta drink it all down-o!
I'm shooting for 3 gal into the (3 gal) keg. So 3.4 gal post-boil, and will lose maybe .2 gal absorption into the hops in my hop spider, and then about .2 gal to trub.
Originally planned to use Wyeast 2001 Urquell yeast, but the old pack I had didn't grow up in a starter, so switched to 2278 (my LHBS was out of 2001 that day). Either should be fine, or another lager yeast that favors maltiness (trying WLP810 at 55° for current batch).
Can use fast (Narziss or Tasty) lager profile: Raise temp after initial growth phase (2-3 days), then raise temp 2°/day for 6 days to 67 and hold for 5 days (Diacetyl rest). Or use more standard lager profile: keep at initial temp for about a week, then slowly raise for D-rest. Then cold crash, fine with gelatin, rack to keg and lager for 4-6 weeks. |
