Going to brew this weekend. Any suggestions?

3.65 kg United Kingdom - Maris Otter Pale 38 3.75 77.3%
122 g United Kingdom - Crystal 70L 34 70 2.6%
0.45 kg United Kingdom - Chocolate 34 425 9.5%
0.25 kg American - Roasted Barley 33 300 5.3%
0.25 kg Canadian - Munich Dark 34 32 5.3%

28.5 g northern brewer Pellet 13 Boil 60 min 50.1

15.9 liters strike water

15.6 liters sparge water


Strike Water Temperature 166

Mash Temperature Target 154 degrees

Sparge Temperature 170

20 liters of wort

I'm going to use a bit of 2 row added to the Maris just cause I have some left.

Looks like an American stout, with the Northern Brewer hops. I would cut back on the chocolate malt to make it maybe 5% to your grist. Both that and the roasted barley will give roasted flavor, and too much can dominate your stout. You could also boost the the crystal to 5%. But it looks fine to me, generally. Any specific ideas about yeast?

I'm going to use the Nottingham Ale Yeast. All right, I was worried about adding too much Choc and Barley. Cool

Thanks,
