Hi there,
Wondering if anyone has some advice for me. I made the below Milk Stout recipe with cold brewed coffee. I let it sit in primary for 2 weeks so pretty sure it fermented out. Hit all the right numbers with OG/FG. Bottled with 100grams of white table sugar. About 3 weeks later I noticed the caps were convexing so I opened one - GUSHER. They were all the same - a couple of bottles had small fracture lines, so of course I was worried and dumped it all. I added cold brewed coffee to the bottling bucket - could this be a problem? Any advice would be appreciated. I did get to taste it (albeit warm) and it was very nice so would like to have another go and get it right.
9 lbs Pale Malt, Maris Otter (3.0 SRM)
1 lbs 8.0 oz Chocolate Malt (350.0 SRM)
8.0 oz Roasted Barley (300.0 SRM)
1 lbs Milk Sugar (Lactose) (0.0 SRM) Sugar
1.50 oz Fuggles [3.80 %] - Boil 60.0 min
0.50 oz Fuggles [3.80 %] - Boil 30.0 min
1.0 pkg British Ale II (Wyeast Labs #1335) [124.21 ml]
2.00 Cup Oslo Roasters Cold Brew Coffee (Bottling 5.0 mins)
