This will be my 5th brew, and my 2nd attempt at a black IIPA.
the original recipe is here:
http://hopville.com/recipe/591764/imperial-ipa-recipes/yodas-darkside-ipa
OG was 1.092
FG was 1.022
Here's what I'd like to fix:
I want to lower my FG- I've heard subbing sugar works well for boosting gravity while keeping FG low. How much sugar should I sub, and what kind of sugar?
I'd like my FG to be around 1.012
Also, I'd like the malt profile to be a little more complex- what are some good specialty malts that can add a more caramel/bread like character to the malt profile? And how much should I add?
Thanks!
