So,a friend and I are targeting to make an approx 10.5% ABV Dark Chocolate Stout w/ Strawberries for another friends wedding.
Tasty.
First time making a massive brew like this - looking for advice and tips if possible.
How long should I anticipate primary to take, approx?
Grain bill look fitting enough?
Where is the faildozer?
