Maybe you had some old/stale malt. By what means did you add it? Chocolate malt is one of my favorite specialty grains, and it always seems to add a rich flavor with a hint of chocolate for me.bechbd said:I tried using some chocolate malts (2#) in a porter I recently made it it did not seem to add any chocolate flavor to it at all.
Then you're not really looking to add actual chocolate or nut extracts. In this case use roasted grains like chocolate malt, kiln coffee malt, and roasted barley to get tones of chocolate, nuts, and coffee. Toasted 2-row will also contribute a nice nutty/toasty character to your beer.bechbd said:I would like more subtle flavors
Low Down Brown Ale is brewed in the American style with pale malt, crystal malts, and a touch of chocolate malt. This medium-bodied ale has a distinctive Mt. Hood hop finish.
