Can we get an all-grain recipe of this, please?

Beavdowg · 01-18-2010, 11:08 PM

Anyone, anyone? Maybe put the extract recipe into Beersmith and convert it to all-grain. Thanks

I'll try to find some time tonight to do that conversion for you. I'll let you know...

Ok I posted the all grain recipe in the first post of this thread. Hopefully it helps. Good luck if you try this one.

I'm brewing this right now, but haven't found the hazelnut extract. Did you get it at the brew shop, or at a grocery store?

Nevermind, I checked the website of another local brew shop, and they have the extract.

I brewed this yesterday. unfortunately the store was out of dark LME so I substituted 6 lbs of amber extract and one pound of DME. I followed the rest of recipe but the wort came out more of a dark brown than a black. Any thoughts?

18oz of chocolate malt should add quite a bit of darkness, and the chocolate itself adds some murkiness. If the crush on the chocolate malt was very course, you might not get as much flavor and color out of it.

Regardless, this isn't a very delicate recipe so I'm sure you'll be fine if things skewed one way or another.
