I have a True Brew Irish Stout kit that I want to experiment with. If I add a half pound of lactose will I get something approximating a cream stout or will I just get a mess? Either way it will be fun, but one will be more fun than the other. The kit comes with 3.3 lbs hopped dark LME, 2 lbs dark DME, some crystal malt and roasted barley, and 2 ounces of hop pellets. Dextrose for bottling. I might add a couple of bourbon soaked vanilla beans along the way only because I'm such a noob that I have no real idea what I'm doing. In fact, I brew like I golf: close my eyes and swing all my might! Sorry if this post is in the wrong place. There's that noob thing again.
