HMMM... McD's usually offers free refills on the drinks... that could work out!

Dear God! Why did you just do that to me?????:eek::eek:

I believe the "deception" comes from the fact that the beer tastes like chocolate and coffee, but there is no chocolate or coffee anywhere in the ingredients

What yeast did you use? That seems like pretty good attenuation to me. I doubt it was under-attenuated, so I am leaning toward infection. Have you actually tasted any of the brews? Does it taste right if you let the fizz die down? Any more info you can think of may be helpful.

Seems like it might work. With dark LME, Black malt, and Chocolate Malt, it is going to be almost black (like a stout), but it is a fairly good base grain bill. How were you planning to use the hops? Are you adding both types early? You will probably need both of those hops additions at 60...

I have been working on developing some simple SMaSH recipes to try out during my transition to BIAB brewing from extract/grains. So far, I have come up with 2 ideas that I think will pretty well. One is a Brown Porter SMaSH with Crystal 40 as the grain and Fuggles or EKG or Crystal hops. I...

OOPS... My bad.
