I had a fun idea to do a Christmas brew each year for family and friends. Part of my idea is to create the recipe myself.
I'm thinking of brewing an imperial version of a stout I recently brewed and had a few questions about formulating the recipe.
1- Does "imperializing" a recipe seem like it will work or do I need to start from scratch? I will be taking the recipe from 1.052 to around 1.080.
2- What should I use to increase the gravity? From what I have learned I don't think it as simple as merely increasing the total ratio of grains.
Thoughts? Thanks in advance.
