Here is what I came up with and looking for suggestions since this is my first stout. I am looking for a nice chocolate flavor with hints of caramel.
16 oz. Crystal malt 60L
12 oz Chocolate malt (should I make it more?)
3 Lbs. light DME
3.3 Lbs. Dark LME
16 oz bakers chocolate (probably 8oz dark 8 oz regular)
I dont think Ill need lactose because the Crystal will make it sweet enough.
I will probably use Hallertaur hops because thats what I have on hand.
How does this sound?
