Hey guys,
I just mashed in and overshot my Mash Temp by a few degrees. It's sitting at 158 rather than 155. I'm making a milk stout with the following grain bill. I'm not too experienced on malty styles. Does anyone have an opinion on whether I should reduce the amount of lactose? Comparing the recipe to others, it's does seem to contain less roast/crystal/lactose that a lot of them. I was thinking of just letting it ride.
