I'm going to be doing a chocolate stout this weekend as well. The grain bill is based on Barley Water's recipe but with some flaked barley for some mouth feel. Here what i was planning:
OG 1060
FG 1015
IBU 28 (60 min addition only)
Rest at 153F for 60 min.
70% MO
6% C80
8% Chocolate
5% Roasted Barley
7% Lactose
4% Flaked Barley
6 oz Cocoa Powder at end of boil
US-05
This is my first one so I don't want to go too extreme on the chocolate. I guess if 6oz isn't enough I can add some to the secondary, but I think it will be.
Brewed this bad boy up on Friday. Hit an OG 1061. The sample had a nice chocolate flavor to it. I think I'm going to naturally carb in the keg and try not to touch it until mid September. Can't wait to see how this turns out!
