I'm just sitting here, waiting for my water to boil. I'm brewing a coffee stout with a bit of chocolate malt. I took a few ingredients from a few different recipes I had found online. I needed a cheap/simple stout recipe, as funds are a bit low. This is the first time I've branched out, writing my own recipe - so to speak. I figured I'd throw the recipe up here to see what you all have to say. Please, bring on the criticism!! Here goes:
6lbs Breiss Dark LME
1lb Pale chocolate malt
1lb Medium Crystal malt
1lb Muntons Light DME
6C brewed coffee
1oz cascade hops
safale-05
Heat water to 160 & steep grains for 40 min
Bring to a boil
Remove from heat, then add both extracts & coffee
Start timer for 60 min.
Boil hops for last 40 min
Cool to 80, then pitch yeast
I'm questioning the choice of hops, but there isn't much I can do now.
I plan on brewing this again someday, though.
Thanks in advance!
