So here I am brewing a Milk Stout tonight that I am planning to add cacao nibs to in a couple of weeks and add cold press to at bottling. I am doing 2.5 gallon BIAB with the following grain bill:
4 lb American - Pale Ale
0.38 lb German - Carafa III
0.38 lb United Kingdom - Pale Chocolate
0.13 lb United Kingdom - Extra Dark Crystal 120L
Hops are .4oz cluster at 60 and .25 cluster at 30.
This is a NB Milk stout recipe that also calls for 0.5 lbs of lactose at 60 minutes. Thought I had some on hand and with about 30 mins left in mash realize I do not and no stores open carry it, uh oh!!
I am going to substitute with 4oz of corn sugar after I noticed that Lagunitas Cappuccino Stout clone from BYO uses that with a somewhat similar grain bill. Figure this is better than tossing everything and picking more grain up.
Should I be ok here?
