I brewed a stout a few weeks ago, racked to the secondary this weekend and added espresso.
During the initial boil i seemed to lose a lot of liquid and had to add a solid gallon of water to the primary after the fact to get up over 5 gallons. When i racked i noticed the stout seemed a bit more watery than i would like it. I'm considering adding some maltodextrin either into the secondary or at bottling.
Any thoughts or suggestions to 'thicken' the stout a bit?
Thanks
