Ok, SWMBO requested a Caramel Chocolate Coffee Stout and here is what I came up with. I based it loosely off of Lumpy Gravey's Caramel Coffee Stout
I have a few questions before I go diving into this. Here's the recipe;
Recipe: Caramel Cult Catastrophe
Style: American Stout
TYPE: All Grain
Recipe Specifications
--------------------------
Batch Size (fermenter): 5.00 gal
Estimated OG: 1.065 SG
Estimated Color: 66.4 SRM
Estimated IBU: 56.7 IBUs
Brewhouse Efficiency: 72.00 %
Boil Time: 60 Minutes
Ingredients:
------------
Amt Name Type # %/IBU
7 lbs Pale Malt (2 Row) US (2.0 SRM) Grain 1 52.0 %
1 lbs 4.0 oz Black Barley (Stout) (500.0 SRM) Grain 2 9.3 %
1 lbs 4.0 oz Caramel/Crystal Malt - 20L (20.0 SRM) Grain 3 9.3 %
1 lbs 4.0 oz Oats, Flaked (1.0 SRM) Grain 4 9.3 %
1 lbs 4.0 oz Roasted Barley (300.0 SRM) Grain 5 9.3 %
1 lbs 4.0 oz Special B Malt (180.0 SRM) Grain 6 9.3 %
3.5 oz Milk Sugar (Lactose) (0.0 SRM) Sugar 7 1.6 %
1.00 oz Columbus (Tomahawk) [14.00 %] - Boil 60. Hop 8 49.6 IBUs
4.00 oz Cocoa Powder (Boil 10.0 mins) Flavor 9 -
2.50 oz Coffee (Boil 10.0 mins) Flavor 10 -
1.00 oz Willamette [5.50 %] - Boil 10.0 min Hop 11 7.1 IBUs
8.00 oz Caramel (Boil 5.0 mins) Flavor 12 -
1.0 pkg Irish Ale (Wyeast Labs #1084) [124.21 ml Yeast 13 -
Mash Schedule: Single Infusion, Medium Body, Batch Sparge
Total Grain Weight: 13 lbs 7.5 oz
----------------------------
Name Description Step Temperat Step Time
Mash In Add 5.39 gal of water at 164.5 F 152.0 F 60 min
Sparge: Batch sparge with 2 steps (Drain mash tun, , 3.15gal) of 168.0 F water
So the questions are, could I melt the candies down in condensed milk and add that to the boil instead of adding just melted candies (which would be a PITA to do) and lactose. Basically, do you think condensed milk would make a gross or off flavor?
Thanks!
Sorry, didn't mean to post this here, i'll move it to the other page.
