Hi
I am about to attempt to brew my first milk stout in which i will be following a "left hand milk stout clone recipe" that i found on homebrewers association with the following ingredients:
I am brewing 2.5 gallon batches and have therefore decided to experiment a bit with the second batch.
My goal is to create a chocolate coffee-ish milk stout "bomb" that is pretty much like a desert meal with powerful "thick" chocolate flavours and notes of coffee. Like a brownie-in-a-glass kind of thing.
However i am in doubt as to what to add (cocoa nibs, espresso shot, coffee beans and whatnot) as well as the amounts.
So if anybody got experience with this then please let me know how to proceed
Cheers
