Would you call this Light Peated Malt or regular?
No surprise that your beer was ruined when you used 1,600% more of a strongly flavored ingredient than intended.
Though Scottish Ale depends on yeast (rather than peat) for some of its depth of flavor, Stone Smoked Porter does indeed use a small amount peated malt in the grain bill. Since that is the exact flavor that Ed is after, and since the amount is fairly well documented, the only question that remains is how this particular maltster's peated malt compares to the variety used by Stone. All other points are fairly moot.
Well because Stone doesn't ship to Florida I don't know what their smoked porter tastes like, so that explains my error.
But if you do make it Ed save mine and compare head to head and let me know.
