Greetings All,
I'd like to try Revvy's Kentucky Common recipe...and make it almost black in color. (Like the picture taken with his cell phone) Brewer's Friend software indicates that I'll get this color if I bump up the black patent malt from 2 oz. to 16 oz.
Everyone who's made this recipe raves about the taste, drink-ability, and so on, so I don't want to screw it up.
Will the increase in black patent ruin the taste? If so, would chocolate malt be a viable alternative? Is there a better choice than these?
Thanks for your input!
