I am trying to make an imperial milk stout that is close to the one from the Lakewood Brewing Company in Dallas, TX. It's called the Temptress. It's a very good imperial milk stout with chocolate, coffee, and vanilla tastes. I'm not sure if I should use caramel 80 or 60 and what the reason would be for one over the other. And if my amounts are good.
The rough draft recipe I have so far is:
12 lbs - 2 row pale malt
1 lb - flaked oats
1 lb - Caramel 80 or (Caramel 60??)
1 lb - Briess chocolate malt
1 lb - English roasted barley (maybe 12 oz instead of 1 lb)
1 lb - lactose
2 tbsp vanilla extract
1 oz - northern brewer hops or (uk Kent Golding or fuggles)
Not sure which would be best
