I was given about 90% of a Foreign Extra Stout recipe from a small brew pub in Ohio. The only thing the brewer didn't tell me was the amount of Roasted Barley and Chocolate malt - just that they were the english varieties. I came up with a best guess based on other stout recipes, but wanted to get some opinions.

The english chocolate and roasted barley is much darker than american versions, which will lead to an almost jet black beer. My efficiency may be higher, but I'm new to all grain and want to be conservative.
