Well, I just called the LHBS and they don't have any of Black Barley or Flake Barley that this recipe calls for.
What do you think I can substitute? He mentioned oatmeal for the Flaked Barley, but I am not interested in anything like an oatmeal stout, I am wondering if only 1/2 pound will effect it that much.
I liked this recipe because of the cocoa and roast tastes as Soulive said.
With that in mind, what can I use to replace these ingredients that contribute to these tastes?
Need to replace
1oz of black roasted barley
8oz of flaked barley
P.S. ordering online isn't much of an option as I plan to brew tomorrow.
Thanks again. |

Well I made it without to much fuss. just pitched the yeast. It is warm here today 88 degrees. I have to put a wet shirt on it to get the temp down. It is at 77 degrees , but is in a room that is 67 degrees, so hopefully it will go down a bit more.
The exciting thing is that my OG was 1.078  I got my 7.5 boil wort from 8.8 gallons of water or 85% efficiency

Holy **** ... this stuff is good. Popped my first bottle open last night after only a week and a half in the bottle. Best beer I've made so far no doubt.
Thanks for the awesome recipe! This is definately gonna be brewed more than a few times.

Malto Dextrin adds mouth feel without adding any other flavor or character to the beer. Carapils may add some caramel or toffee aromas to the beer that are not present in the current recipe.

Hate to be a drag on this thread, but any chance at getting an extract conversion of this? I've been wanting to I move up to PM, and it's about time too, so that could work as well. Thanks. This looks great, just what I'm looking for.
