I have made the recipe below and I like it. What I would like to do now is take this recipe and make a chocolate coffee stout. For the Coffee part I'm going to cold brew some coffee and add it to the secondary or at bottling time. I don't really want to use chocolate in the recipe, I would rather just use grains to get the chocolate flavor. The original recipe has a hint of chocolate in it but I would like more to come thru.
My first question is how much coffee to use?
second question is how much more chocolate malt should I use?
