My Kicked up to Imperial Smoked Porter. Any additions, subtractions, and review amount of German Smoked Malt. Like the smoke level in Stone Smoked porter but wanted something "BIGGER".

about to order ingredients my shop has german smoked malt. no peat smoked. comes in 8oz bag will probably use 7-8oz. as I am also upping this to an imperial smoked porter (thoughts?):

3lb Maris Otter
1.5lb choc malt
1lb crystal 60 lvb
.25 black patent
7-8 oz german smoked malt
6lbs Light DME
.75 oz columbus hop 60 min
.5 willamette 10min

s-04 yeast

1.083 OG
1.021 FG
44 IBU
50 SRM
8.0% ABV

You'll not get any smoke character with 8 oz, I'm afraid.

Should you replace the Maris Otter with Rauchmalt, then we're getting somewhere.

What kind of extraction can I expect with RauchMalt? same as a regular two-row?

It's a base malt - it's on the same level as any pale malt.

Great! Thanks.
