AG#41 - Coffee & Donut Stout

[dennisdk2000]

That's the one. There is a fair few quirky ones in there, including ones suitable for gluten intolerants, but also some more standard ones. The recipes are in 1 US gallon format with a 5 US gallon scale-up. I convert them to 4.5L and brew in demi-johns!

I'm going to treat myself to a copy then and make up some unusual smaller batches. Does it measure everything in US imperial or in metric?

 

[PD]

am still trying to figure out how he got the donuts to sink ?

Is it this one?

Worth getting then if you like unusual recipes?

Aye that's it.

Indeed, and its a brilliant recipe book. No "regular" beers in there really. Perfect for the home brewer that likes to think out of the box. Allot of recipes, divided into seasons.

It's all US imperial, but a couple of minutes with a calculator sorts that out.

Re "regular" beers - there are recipes for fairly straight-forward IPA/APAs, a dry stout, kölsch (okay, that one is perhaps a little unusual in the UK)...

The Everyday IPA in the book is awesome.

Goodie. It seems like the Everyday IPA is their flagship, and im brewing it this weekend. Followed by either this stout or the chocolate maple porter. Both sounds great

Are you taking any to TST?

Crossing everything that my hints about the recipe book for my birthday have made it through

Always figure a beer like this would be perfect hair of the dog material... Strong and coffee boom.
Looks ace.

Was planning too. Probably the keg and I'll leave the bottles to age for supping at Xmas.

Started on mine this afternoon. Got fresh coconut for it, and some real doughnuts to through in if I'm feeling brave.

I might also sling the coconut milk in?

Mashing the grain, only mustered 6kg of pale malt to go in there, but should do the job. Going to give it a good 2 or 3 hours to mash ...

Thinking seeing as the coconut is fresh and has ended up with bits of shell on it, I'll rinse it, and then boil it. Then again, it'd be boiled anyway if I just throw it in with the wort!

Sparging and colour of wort.

Can't wait to start lobbing the weird stuff in there.

My god does this smell strong. The house is stunk out with coffee. Chunks of coconut floating on the top with coffee beans.

I added loads of brown sugar and muscovado as well, more than the recipe, what the hell.
