I bought a Brooklyn Brewshop chocolate maple porter 1-gallon all grain kit, with the thought of adding an ounce of coffee to the secondary instead of maple syrup for an easy chocolate coffee porter kit brew.
However, the instructions call for adding 3/4 cup of maple syrup at the end of the boil, which tells me that the OG of the wort is dependent on the sugars in the syrup. I want to maintain the appropriate OG and FG but without any maple flavor so I was thinking I should add about 4oz of table sugar at the end of the boil instead.
Is this a sound idea or does anyone have another suggestion?
