SO I stuck with the recipe exactly and used the full lb of lactose. It turned out great - I love the flavor. THe roasted barley did give it a bit of a coffee flavor and the lactose balanced it out perfectly. For me its the ideal taste for a milk stout.
Thanks for the help everyone, this was...
I was wondering if this device here

would work the same as a counterpressure bottle filler gun. This is only $9 and the bottle guns are way more
Thanks for the help everyone,
Im gonna stick with the lb of roasted barley (like that roasty flavor) and go with half the lactose and maybe add the other half after if needed. I may have to change the male extract to malt extract though :)
Thank you for the help. I will definetly cut back on the lactose and roasted barley. Do you recommend increasing the LME to 7 lbs or is that to much with all the grains in there?

Golden Light Male Extract...
