Im planning on brewing a Cherry Stout this week and wanted to see how much cherries you guys thought I should put in it. The base beer is gonna be a dry stout:
6 lbs. Light LME
1 lb Roasted Barley
1/2 lb Chocolate
1/3 lb Crystal
1 oz Goldings
White Labs Irish Ale Yeast
Ive decided to go with Oregon Cherry Puree in the secondary. I got 2 cans but am starting to think that might be too much. I dont want my stout to be overpowered by cherries, I'd like it to be more subtle.
Is that too much cherries or am I overthinking it?
Also, should I add some irish moss? Ive seen it in a lot of stout recipes.
I Appreciate the help
