Hello I'm working on a partial mash recipe for a double chocolate stout and would be open to some opinions. The thing I'm curious about most (in this iteration) is how the crystal will taste and if I will be able to taste the range of the four. Any one have any experience with using 3+ crystal malts? I am sitting on more than a few vanilla beans, but I figured this one was complex enough already. I with brewing in a bag my efficiencies are al ready not the greatest. I max out around 12lbs any more and my efficiency down down the ****ter; I usually like to keep it around 8-10lbs. I am open to scaling some of the items down or removing them outright.
