I've got some Chocolate Malt at home that I was given by a fellow homebrewer. I just ordered an Oatmeal Stout from Midwest.
I really wanted the AHS Double chocolate, but it came out to being ~$20 more...so I figure maybe i'll just add some of the Chocolate Malt I have at home. It already has 4oz of CM, so how much more should I add to tweak the recipe some more?
Here is the description from MW-
Product Description:
Oatmeal Stout. This Stout has more body than our Irish Stout. This kit is smoother, slightly sweeter, and has a clean, roasted, malty flavor and chewy texture from the oats. Our ingredients for this recipe include: 6 lbs. Dark liquid malt extract, 8 oz. Rolled Oats, 4 oz. Chocolate Malt, 4 oz. Roasted Barley specialty grains, 1 oz. of hops, yeast, priming sugar and a grain bag. Updated 2008 catalog price.
This is probably my 2nd to last LME brew, my neighbor and I are looking to get into DME's, but since I was short on research time I went with this! HOping to be pleasantly surprised.
