So went down to the brew shop to pick up grain for my next brew day. Well I messed up on weighing out the grain and ended up with something along the lines of 2 lbs British 2 row, .5 lbs crystal 20, 1.5 lbs crystal 60, and about 5 lbs chocolate malt. I figured since I messed up might as well mill it and give it a shot. I'm hoping thats enough 2 row to provide the enzymes for the mash. Anyone one have any experience with a mash with this much roasted malt?
I was thinking about trying to turn it in to a 3 gal all grain batch and using british yeast with it. Hoping it turns out something porter or stout like. Any ideas on how bitter it would be, how to hop this, or anything else that could be done or added to this grain bill that could help?
This is the first (and hopefully only) time I've messed up like this so any help would be great.
