So I was building up a clone of the Founders Breakfast Stout, using this post as a foundation:

Well, somehow while making substitutions, the C120 got removed. I think I originally planned to substitute with C60, but evidently I forgot to add it. So I brewed it yesterday and now noticed today that I don't have any crystal malt in the grain bill. Does anyone know what affect that may have on the finished product? I'm concerned that with nothing to bridge the gap between the heavily roasted malts and the MO, the coffee/roasty flavor may be a little abrupt. I'm hoping though that it'll just be a bit more aggressive and not overpowering. Any thoughts?
