How sweet are milk stouts? I see a lot of recipes that call for 1 pound of milk sugar. That seems like a lot of unfrementable sugars. Left hand stout doesn't seem that sweet. Is a full pound too much?
I've seen recipes that call for a full pound.
I prefer to mash a little higher than I would otherwise and use a 1/2 pound.
What do you mean by "mash a little higher" are you talking temperature?

A "normal" beer, I'll usually mash between 142F and 147F depending on the style and how dry I want it. My sweet milk stouts, I'll mash around 154F.
