    AG #3 Chocolate Stout

    7 days later and the hydro is reading 1.010 giving a nice sweet chocolatey 5.25% stout. Quite a bit off the planned ABV but over the 5% mark so I'm happy :)

    Chocolate Stout - Thoughts?

    Interesting read. Will have to re-brew without the two-stage mash and compare.

    She's a beast! Cooled the wort down to below 30 degrees in just over 20 mins - credit has to go to my brother for building it.

    Lime Wheat Beer

    8 days after fermentation and there is still a very nice limey smell coming from the FV - tastes quite fruity too! Can anyone advise me as to whether I should add the dextrose at the same time as transferring to 2nd FV?

    Chocolate Stout - Thoughts?

    Cheers guys! Additional oats and glucan rest it is then, shall be buying ingredients this weekend and brewing next week if all goes well. Just to check though, why the 10% MO with the oats? What does that do?

    Chocolate Stout - Thoughts?

    I've never used it either, just read the flavour profile and thought it might work well with the others. So, up the oats to around 300g and add 30g of MO and mash prior to a full mash with everything else involved? How long would you recommend to mash these and at what temp? Am I right in...
