This is EXACTLY what I wanted to do for a Porter. I had this idea in my head for a few months so it's a bitter-sweet feeling finding it on here. I'm happy to find that this recipe has already been tried and has had success, but I'm sad that it's not something I came up with :( haha. Going to...

Sounds good, I did a NB Chocolate milk stout kit and it turned out good, but could use more chocolate. 2 weeks on coco nibs did bring in some flavor but I'd like more of that chocolate to come through.

I plan on attempting a Mocha Stout sometime in the near future and a Peppermint Chocolate Stout for around Christmas and was wondering which would you suggest; adding unsweetened bakers chocolate or adding cocoa powder to the end of the boil? I've heard these are both good ways to get that...

I like this game! Kettle size (size - in gallons): 8gals Carboy or Bucket? (size - in gallons): 6gals Extract, Partial Mash, or All-Grain: All grain Do you BIAB? Yes, No, or What the Hell is that?: No Are you able to rack to secondary?: Yes Boil size (in gallons): 6-7 Batch size (in gallons)...

Yum! Looks like a good recipe, but I'm very much a novice also so what do I know? :p

I can't speak to as how much, but I plan on using Oregon Fruit's products. http://www.oregonfruit.com/ Going to try a Smoked Cherry Porter. I have heard Oregon Fruit is terrific for brewing.

Love the hop combo, but not sure on dry hopping all 3. A friend of mine did 2 Ales and dry hopped 1 with Amarillo and the other with Cascade and said the Amarillo dry hopping was far better. I love the way Amarillo hops smell so I would dry hop that but that's just me :). At any rate, good luck...

Is this looking better? Pretty much completely changed the recipe: 10lbs Pilsner 2-row 1lbs Belgian Wheat 0.25lbs Aromatic Malt 1.5lbs Table Sugar 1.5 Styrain Goldings@ 60 Whirfloc tablet @15 0.5 Styrain Goldings@ 5 .25 Saaz dry hop 1 week

Looks like Table sugar has the most flavor. Very interesting read on how the different sugars effect the beer. Thanks for that! Rob

Great, thanks for your help guys! Defiantly going to change the recipe up (losing the Caravienne and substituting the candi sugar with table sugar) and read that article about Triples that BYO has. Thanks again! Cheers!:mug:

Trident Brewing Co. "Brew named after a trident stick, wet all over in waves, strength, and mist." My brewing partner and I do our brewing out of Bremerton, WA which is home to the 2nd biggest ship yard in the nation (I think) only to San Deigo. A little more north is a sub-base where they...

Well he just went out and bought his favorite style of coffee already french pressed, he didn't actually grind it himself. And I'm hoping that Maple/Bacon/Coffee Porter (Breakfast in America I'm calling it) comes out well, I'll be sure to let you guys know :). Cheers! :mug: Rob

A friend of mine put a hop bag of french pressed coffee in cold water over night, took the bag out and used that cold water at bottling and his stout turned out pretty good. Maybe you could do the same thing or something similar? At any rate, good luck! Let us know how it turns out! Cheers...

And now I know what I'm brewing next.

AWESOME! thanks! :mug:

Anyone know where I can get the yeild %, the CFD %, the protein % and the moisture % for Cherrywood Smoked Malt? I've looked everywhere. I'm trying to plug it into Beersmith because they don't have the malt available.

How much is too much? I'm thinking of taking your really basic Porter recipe and adding some Briess Cherrywood Smoked Malt from Northern Brewer as seen here: http://www.northernbrewer.com/shop/brewing/brewing-ingredients/grain-malts/briess-cherrywood-smoked-malt.html The description says...

Hey all, About the 2nd weekend in March, a good friend and fellow hombrewer of mine are getting together to brew some maple, bacon beer. We've decided that each of us will start with your basic Porter, then do different things in the secondary and at bottling to give us the flavors we...
