Notes

Oats are actually Briess roasted oats. They are fairly new and were not available while editing this recipe.

Ferment at 68°F (20°C) until the yeast drops clear. With healthy yeast, fermentation should be complete in a week or less. Allow the lees to settle and the brew to mature without pressure for another two days after fermentation appears finished. At this point you have an excellent milk stout. To make the chai milk stout you will need to add a tincture of chai spices. For the chai spice, I simply take a cheap vodka and soak our house chai spice mixture in it, then add small doses to a keg until it tastes right. I try to make a very strong spice tincture so there is only a negligible amount of vodka added to the beer. Usually it only takes 0.4 oz of tincture to spice 5 gallons of beer. Frankly, I am not certain what is in our chai spice mixture, but I am sure your favorite chai spice mix will work great. Make additions slowly and taste as you go so you can hit it just right.
