Picked up the Midwest "Simply Beer" stout kit for $20 and it comes with 7lb dark LME, 4oz roasted barley, 4oz chocolate malt, 1oz cluster and 1oz cascade.
This is a pretty week grain bill. I'm a fan of stouts similar to Sierra Nevada Stout. I'm down to buy grains but I would prefer to not buy hops. I do have a few oz's of Columbus hops that I can use if someone recommends it.
I'm thinking keep the hops as is and add 4oz more of the roasted barley. Would that make much of a difference?
How would you dress this up without adding too much $$ to the cost?
