I only brew all-grain, but I got a Cooper's Stout can and 2lb of light DME for Christmas from well-meaning relatives.
I already have some regular stout in the pipeline, but I've been wanting to try a coffee stout. Can anyone suggest how I can brew up my Cooper's Stout can plus 2lb of DME into a coffee stout?
I really haven't brewed from extract. The directions on the can say to mix it with room-temp water and sugar, so I guess I could mix the Cooper's can and the DME together with water until I get a 1.043 or so, but I don't know when to add the coffee or what kind or how much. I want a dry, bitter stout with some coffee flavor.
