I'm brewing a chocolate stout today. It's actually a chocolate milk stout, which I plan on adding a half lb of baking chocolate to. I bought all the stuff for Jamil's recipe:
10 lbs maris otter
1 lb black patent
.75 lb crystal 80
.5 lb pale chocolate
1 lb lactose
1.5 oz fuggles @ 60
However, I bought a lb of crystal 80 and pale chocolate, so I could add more if I wanted. How would you change this recipe? I was thinking of adding more pale chocolate malt, maybe .25-.5 lbs more, and possibly subtracting a little black patent if I added more pale chocolate.
