What do you think of this grain bill? unfortunately I can't really change it much (its all mixed), but I am curious about your thoughts. I can adjust the amount of DME and I also have .5lb chocolate wheat malt on hand. Should I add it or not?
I'm shooting for something similar to Allagash Black. Description from site:
7.5% - Allagash Black is a Belgian style stout brewed with 2 Row barley, torrified wheat, oats, both roasted and chocolate malt and a generous portion of dark caramelized candi sugar. The silky mouth feel is a great balance to the roasted character, coffee and dark chocolate notes expressed throughout this beer.
5.25 gallon batch, 70% efficiency
1.076 OG
Wyeast 3787 Trappist High Gravity
Fermentables / Lbs
Aromatic Malt - 1
Special B Malt - 1
Munich Malt - 1
Chocolate Malt (UK) - 1
Wheat Malt (Germany) - 0.5
Oats (Flaked) - 1
Barley Roasted - 0.5
Light Dry Extract - 6
Mash @ 155
Cascade hops - 30IBU
