Lagunitas Cappuccino Stout Clone Recipe???

I have been searching the amazing internet for the lagunitas cappuccino stout recipe from the September 2005 BYO. If anyone has this recipe, or this issue, and wouldn't mind sharing, it would be much appreciated. a link to a site that has it works too.

I am looking for that specific recipe, even though there are coffee stout recipes everywhere

no one? I can't find this one anywhere!!

Google found this: http://blog.droso.org/2006/01/31/55-lagunitas-cappuccino-stout-clone/

right on, i think that's about what is in byo. thanks man, have to convert though math isn't fun

Here is what I’m struggling with: The bottle states an OG of 1.076 and an ABV of 9.2%. In order for this to be correct it means that whatever yeast strain was used achieved an apparent attenuation of 92% and finished at a FG of 1.006.

Does anyone know what strain of yeast they use and how the hell they get 92% attenuation from it?

I would guess wlp099.

I myself was looking up the Lagunitas Cappuccino stout.

Just so there is no confusion here it is.

I still have 1 bottle at my house, I could check the label for OG and ABV tonight if you would like.

I took this pic last time to text to my friends to tell them to try it out.
Good beer!
I know when I posted the recipe from the 2005 BYO magazine that it's ABV % was off because I knew it was 9%
So not sure why the magazine wrote OG 1.070 and 7.2%.
As we know it should be 9% and OG 1.076, and just noticed the IBU on bottle says 29.5 and recipe says 52.?
I am putting all the info into my beersmith 2 SW and see what it says.
As I want to brew the 9% one, the one I tasted and loved! lol
Maybe they changed the recipe it has been 7+ years since that recipe was published.

here is the picture.

Here is what I got when punching it in beersmith. (I am still new to it so not sure if I did the Mash details correct.) I added Irish moss because I always use it. I also added yeast nutrient because why not it is a high gravity beer..

Notes



Also for the brewing of the 3oz coffee to be added to secondary fermentation I am not sure how many IBU that would add but it must add some.
I could not find coffee in my misc ingredients in beersmith. :/ Nevermind I just figured out how to add it in the ingredients section. All good there.
But how many IBU does coffee have? haha
also how would we go about brewing the 3oz coffee and adding to secondary?
I did a coffee porter ones and I added the coffee in a filter sack for the last 10 min of the boil.

any idea on how to get the coffee in this to come out right let me know!
thanks

ready for brew day!

A shot or two of espresso?

I brewed the 3 oz of coffee brewed in my freshly washed coffee maker with 6 cups water. It smelled good. My FG was at 1.020 at that time. Then I added the hops.

hot coffee





it tasted sooo good I cannot wait another week to keg it!



It has been in secondary for 1 week now and started bubbling again slowly after the transfer. Hope it finishes about 1.017.

How did it come out?

it turned out good, a little added bitterness from the hot brewed coffee but didn't harm flavor to much. next time I make this I was thinking of cold brewing the coffee. that is all I would change.

I have this, the local store helped me get a conversion for a partial. Its in the primary. I ended up with about 6.5 gallons, adding more water to get the OG down. Not sure what that will do but it got the OG to 1.068; it was about 1.076 before I added more water (was that an OK thing to do???? - can't do anything this time, but next time I can make a better decision).
Also, for the secondary, I'm thinking of putting about 2 gallons in one carboy with no espresso, and the rest in another carboy with the 6 oz of espresso. Does this sound OK???
