I plan on brewing a Russian (more like Belgian) Imperial Stout this weekend.
I will be doing a 23 liter batch.
The ingredients I have selected are:
3.75 lbs. of Coopers hopped Stout
3.75 lbs. of Coopers hopped Dark Ale
1.1 lbs. of Dextrose/Maltodextrin blend (Brew Enhancer 1)
1 lb. of Dark Candi Sugar
8 oz. Special B Malt
4 oz. Caramel Malt 60
4 oz. Melanoiden Malt
4 oz. Chocolate Malt
3 oz. Willamette Hops (boiled for 20 minutes)
5 teaspoons of Fermax Yeast Nutrient
I will be using the following yeast:
Wyeast 1762 Belgian Abbey II (I made a double-sized starter IAW John Palmer's How To Brew on Thursday).
Coopers Ale Yeast (the two 7 gram packs that come with the hopped extract)
Any thoughts, opinions, or what have you would be welcome and appreciated. Thanks.
