Hello,
The vendor I use for supplies was out of both black patent and carafa iii that I intended to use in a edmund fitzgerald porter clone. I purchased carafa ii, which of course is lighter and has a different flavor profile than iii. Would mixing in a small amount of roasted barley give a flavor profile closer to iii, or might it not make much of a difference in my recipe? This is the clone recipe I used (the recipe is halved for a 10 g BIAB setup):
21.50 lb Pale Malt (2 Row) US (2.0 SRM) Grain 86.00 %
1.00 lb Caramel/Crystal Malt - 60L (60.0 SRM) Grain 4.00 %
1.00 lb Chocolate Malt (350.0 SRM) Grain 4.00 %
1.00 lb Special B Malt (180.0 SRM) Grain 4.00 %
0.50 lb Black (Patent) Malt (500.0 SRM) Grain 2.00 %
2.50 oz Centennial [8.80 %] (60 min) Hops 33.5 IBU
1.00 oz Williamette [5.40 %] (15 min) Hops 4.1 IBU
1.00 oz Williamette [3.80 %] (5 min) Hops 1.2 IBU
1 Pkgs Dry English Ale (White Labs #WLP007) Yeast-Ale
Thanks
