I'm putting together a stout recipe, and I notice that ProMash doesn't have a listing for lactose in their stock sugar list. So I made my own entry. Only problem is, I can't find anywhere online that lists the SG PPPG for lactose powder. Does anyone know, so that I can see how it affects my recipe?

Promash does have this listing, but it's named "Milk Sugar" and has a Potential SG pppg of 1.030.

Duh. Don't mind me. It's been a long week.

I have Beer Smith and it list Lactose SG=1.035
Dry yield fine grain? 76% Max in Batch 10%
This is all that is listed for it

wow, that's interesting. So which is right? I gotta say that Promash hasn't had an update in a LOOOONG time so that may be something to look up.
