Notes

Pitching 2x Yeast Packets sans starter.

You should freeze the raspberries in a plastic freezer bag, occasionally defrosting to help break apart the skin.

Brew the beer, throwing the Chocolate into the boil at the stated times. After a 7 day primary, rack into a 5g barrel for 28 days. I'm using a barrel for Seven Stills' Frambooze, which had a Framboise distilled into Whiskey. After the 28 days, rack onto the raspberries. Age to taste.

Reference: https://www.homebrewersassociation.org/homebrew-recipe/kentucky-breakfast-stout/ - Recipe is based on this, though ended up using British Chocolate Malt (for the Chocolate Malt), Dehusked Carafa II (for the de-bittered black).
