When you keg this brew do you use straight co2 or beergas, in wanting to brew my first stout
And this looks great, I'm just not wanting to get a beer a gas setup right now

I'd personally go with roasted barley instead of the black patent for a stout. Althoigh I guess you could go either way.

Sounds delicious though!

Looks good. I'd add 1/2 lb of flaked oats to give a bit more creaminess to the body.
