Careful on the pepper in the beer... it sounds too close to this beer than I would want:

No, no, when I transferred it to the secondary the sample I took seemed a bit more subdued and less pronounced on the smoke than I was hoping for. I think the carbonation will bring it out some, but...

Are you saying to add actual cherries, or cherry wood?

Any thoughts about adding coffee to the beer? Maybe should have said it in the original post, but that was my strongest inclination at first...

"Shucking Good Ale" isn't a bad name, but if you put lactose in there how are you going to pass up naming it "Creamed Corn Stout"?

I think it's pretty well balanced as far as hops and malts go. Most comments have been that it's heavy on bourbon and oak. I really like this level of bourbon, but next time I may consider cutting...

It would take some work, and the way it is constructed would not really increase the airflow.

Given yours and the other replies, I guess it seems like the only way to solve this is to get a new...

I'm intrigued. My two cents (if you haven't brewed already) is to leave out the late hop additions altogether and drop the black patent. Use a bit of roasted barley, or even derive all the color come...

Well... "supposed to" is just one recommendation from 1999. At any rate, good to hear positive experience without waiting on the toasted malt front.

Toasted Malt Use

I brewed an imperial IPA this evening, and in the 3 gallon recipe I used 0.25lbs of toasted malt (2-row in the oven for 15 min at 350F).

Anyway, I just read on How to Brew...

It won't overpower the beer. Maple syrup ferments almost completely leaving a very subtle taste.

I've added (edit: 16oz of syrup) after I cooled the wort down to 120F, with very mild results....

That's a good idea. I think I'll bump it up to an expected 3 hour boil (depending on boil off rate). Do you think that will lead to caramelized flavors too? That would be good, and it certainly would...

Thanks for the comments.

Yeah, 75% may be a bit of a high estimate. The biggest grain bill I've had was 23 lbs for a 5 gallon batch in which I got (surprising me that it was this high) 67% or so....
