Notes

The alcohol level turned out a little higher than a traditional oatmeal stout - eliminate the DME to bring the level down. This is a rather dark, viscous, and potent brew which will not appeal to the Miller-Bud-Coors clan.

» Prepare yeast starter 24 hours prior to brewing
» Heat 4 qts of water to 170º and add grain bag
» Infuse/mash grains @ 155º for 30 minutes
» Sparge with 2.5 qts of water @ 165º
» Add LME and DME and bring to boil
» At 60 minutes add 1 oz. Nugget hops
» At 15 minutes add gypsum, Irish Moss, and Yeast Nutrient
» At 2 minutes add Chocolate Nibs, Cold Press Coffee, and 1 oz. Willamette hops.

Primary 1 week @ 72º F
Secondary 4 weeks @ 64º F
Rest for 3 weeks @ 62º - 66º before consuming.

For a finish that is a little sweeter, use either .25 lb of lactose or late addition of 8 oz. Invert sugar.

Brewed this beer a month ago and popped the top off one of the bottles yesterday. This is a really good beer. ABV was not as high because of a spill but overall a great flavor full beer. The coffee comes across really smooth. Thanks for the recipe.
