Okay I've got two recipes that I've tweaked heavily (mainly changing around the malts and bumping the gravity significantly). Here goes:
1) American Imperial Stout. It uses a vodka tincture of cacao nibs and chocolate extract. It uses Chicory Coffee (from Cafe Du Monde). I used Denny's Favorite 50 with the last batch before I tweaked it, but I didn't like the flavor profile. Here's the stats:
Gravity: 1.084
IBU: 68 (Tomahawk and Warrior)
2) Imperial IPA. I used Safale S-04 last time but I'm looking for something with a better alcohol tolerance, and something that will accentuate the malt profile without being too fruity. Stats:
Gravity: 1.086
IBU: 106? I use Simcoe, Amarillo, and Columbus (5 oz hops total, not including dry hop). I think this recipe calc might be on crack but that's what it tells me.
I took a break to get a stir plate and flask, and I'm getting ready to start brewing again, so I'm pretty excited to try these out! Any input is appreciated!
