I pulled a stout recipe from Beer Smith and bought the ingredients today. The person who created the recipe was 2nd Place for Stout, Michigan State Fair, 2005 (43.5points).
It calls for a 15.75 pound grain bill, and four of those pounds were briess aromatic malt. I did add one extra pound of 2 row, though....so 16.75 lbs. I'm told that this is a LARGE amount for a recipe....but it must have been pretty good to win 2nd.
I already picked up my ingredients, and all the grain is mixed.
Grain Bill
5 lbs 2 row
4 lbs aromatic malt
1.5 lbs roasted barley
1 lbs chocolate malt
1 lbs crystal 80L
1 lbs Vienna Malt
12 oz flaked barley
4 oz black patent malt
4 oz dark crystal
1 lbs lactose
How is the 4 lbs of aromatic malt going to affect the recipe?
