Hey all,

Does any one have a good 5gal DME coffee Porter recipe or general recommendations for such?
 
I made a good one:

8 lbs Pale malt (Replace with about 6 lbs light DME)
.75 lbs Chocolate Malt

1oz East Kent Goldings 1-hour
1oz Fuggles -1hour

1 vial California Ale (WLP001)

To get the coffee flavor there are actually many things you can do:
1.either about a pound of coffee malt to your specalty grains
2. 12oz of extra course ground coffee to you secondary fermentor
3. maybe a 1/2 gallon of brewed coffee added when bottling/kegging (make sure its room temperature though

I've tried all of these and all have turned good results, my favorite probably being a little bit of coffee malt in the mash (.25lbs) and a 1/2 gallon of cold brew when I kegged. I really like strong coffee flavors so I hope you get to try and see how it turns out
