So, what might the effect of 3x lactose be in a milk stout?

It's going to be very sweet and may give you horrible gas.

Be sure to get some of these because your gastrointestonal track is going to hate you.

Could you make more beer ferment it out and mix the batches?

yeah, just do another batch (2X original recipe) and mix with the original batch at bottling....1/2 of the concentrate for 1 and 1/2 for the other 1.
I used a full lb in my only batch of milk stout. As I understand it some of the sugar will ferment out, but not much, it was very tasty, sweet, but very tasty. No more so than some belgians and other stouts I enjoy drinking.

Pitch lactobacillus and learn to love sour stout.
Nice - enter new brew idea . . . sweet and sour stout
I used 2 pounds in my last 10 gallon choclolate milk stout. It came out great.

I dont think it will be overly sweet. Left Hands milk Stouts Clone called for 12oz and I used the whole pound. It was smooth, creamy, & delicious!
Thanks all for the responses.
I chose to toss the attempt out and do it again per recipe, second batch is in primary now after hitting my #'s. I know i could have probably salvaged it, but I'm weird like that.
Good news is I have 11oz of lactose now for another recipe.....
Thx again,
