So I want to brew a Chocolate Milk Stout and picked up the following for it...
6 pounds Breiss Dark LME
12oz. ground Chocolate Malt
12oz. ground Blackprinz Malt
4oz. Chocolate extract.
I also grabbed Wyeast 1187, Ringwood to go with it...
I plan to steep the malts for the standard 20 mins and then add the LME towards the end of the boil.
My question is, should I go with nibs instead of extract? And which hops would be best?
Also, Am I putting too much Blackprinz in it? I ground the two together and originally only meant to do 4oz, but grabbed the wrong bag.
Thanks and sorry for the questions, this will be my first non-kit brew.
