I've got this Milk Stout base recipe but I want to make it taste like root beer. Ideally in my head I'd add sassafras root to the boil with about 5-10 minutes left, then probably put 2oz of root beer extract into the primary fermenters. This is a 5 gallon recipe, I plan on scaling it up to 10. Let me know your thoughts on ounces of sassafras or really thoughts on anything would be great... Thanks!
