The only other time I've brewed a Russian Imperial Stout was back in 2007 and I was still using extracts. The only imperial-strength beers I've made allgrain have had adjuncts (sugar etc for DIPAs). Please critique my RIS recipe before I pull the trigger & buy everything!
For a 6gallon batch:
18# 2-row
1# caramel 120L
1# roasted barley
1# chocolate malt
1# caramunich II
1#flaked barley
1# flaked oats
for a target OG of 1.111
@60- 2oz Columbus & 1oz Perle
@30- 0.5oz Willamette
Lots of Nottingham yeast
Whatcha think?
