Has anyone brewed the Sam Adams Cream Stout clone in the "Beer Captured" book? If so, how was the color?
I'm planning on brewing it next weekend, but I'm concerned that the predicted color (using BeerTools Pro) is significantly lower than what is given in the book.
I calculate the color as 25.8 SRM, but the book says it should be 69 SRM, even though I set the color values for the malts in BTP with the values from the book.
I'm just wondering if I should boost the color with some black patent malt or just brew it as is.
Cheers,
Steve
