I'm trying to come up with a honey porter. Since real honey will mostly ferment out I'm going to use honey malt but I'm not sure how much to use so it is not overpowering. Any comments would be welcome.
Batch size: 5 1/2 Gal.
Fermentables:
3.3 lb. light LME
2.0 lb. light DME
1.0 lb. Crystal 60
10.0 oz honey malt ???
4.0 black patent
2.0 oz
Also 8.0 oz malto-dextrin for texture and mouth feel.
Hops schedule:
1.5 oz Kent Goldings @ 60 min.
0.5 Fuggles flameout
Yeast:
Wyeast London Ale 1028
Expected results (according to Brew Pal) OG = 1.047, FG = 1.012, ABV = 4.6%, IBU = 24.
