Thank you all for your help. Finally brewed the black ipa recipe from the latest brew your own magazine. It calls for carafa i, chocolate malt, caramel 120, caramel 80....
Will be brewing my first black ipa this week-end and i was wondering if you can provide some suggestions on which dark malt to use. I want more than the color; would like to get a bit of acidity from the grain. Any reco?
