I recently tried a bottle of Samuel Smith Organic Chocolate Stout and would like to try a recreate something similar early in the New Year.....so my research has started.
I've read a lot of differing opinion on various website sites regarding what exactly to use and when to add it. So; I'm turning to the collective knowledge here to get some opinion.
SSOCS has a wonderful, smooth chocolaty flavour.....very distinct and quite sweet.
I read on the label that they use chocolate syrup :wha:
There are various clone recipes around for their oatmeal stout, though I will more than likely go with Alemans highly regarded Effin Oatmeal Stout and add the chocolate to that.
So what am I after?
Peoples experiences brewing with chocolate.....what did you use? When did you add it? How much did you add? Did it taste of chocolate? Did anything go wrong?
Thanks for any help that is forthcoming
