Hi folks i was wondering what all of your most fantastic stout recipes are as i have never had much to do with them, i have just put down one that went like this:
Blackrock miners stout
2kg ldme
roasted black grain 150g
liquorice extract 10ml
goldings finishing hops 20g
safale yeast
All looks good in the fermenter and i am keen to learn more about this style of beer.

The last one I made was
Blackrock Miners Stout
1kg DDM
1.5kg Dex
1x25gm pkt Fuggles hops 10min boil
1x Muntons Premium Yeast
19ltrs only
This turned out excellent.

Cheers

If you're looking for all-grain recipes, I made the "dusty mud Irish stout" from "the complete joy of homebrewing" over the holidays. Very tasty!

I did this couple of weeks ago, tasted nice, but trying to keep my hands of it, and leave it until Xmas.

1 x Can Coopers Stout
1 x 1kg bag of Milk Stout Mix (from HBS)
500g Dark Malt
250g Corn Syurp
2 teaspoons of licroice extract

I've had some success with brown sugar, and dark brown sugar (no more than 500g) before. Adds a rummy aftertaste; anyone tried James Squire Rebellion Porter?

I havent made this yet- it's on next after my schwarzbier.

It's a malt extract Imperial.

4.9kg dark malt extract
250g roast barley
250g patent
350g oven-roasted crystal
60g perle (bittering)
20g perle (flavour)
20g cascade (aroma)
20g haller/herz (aroma)

18L, bulk prime with LDM

Oh, and I'm deciding between a Coopers stout yeast- re-cultured, or a Wy Irish ale.

I can't wait to give this a go.

PLUMMY STOUT
One can of Munton's (or similar) Irish Stout
2 Kg's Dark Liquid Malt
500g Jar Plum Conserve (IXL make it).
250g Lactose
250g DME
2 Sachets Munton's Gold Yeast

TIPS
Use plenty of boiling water in dissolving and stir very long and hard
OG 1060 ---------- FG 1020
Fermenting time is a couple of extra days
If you make it and save some for a year or 2 it will be really great

Cheers

Haha, well hey mate it doesnt hurt to plan ahead

If you really need to know its about 3 foot

my plans for the next month or so:
Gregs AG pilsner
Gregs Extract coopers sparkling
This stout ( with the Conserve)
already have in a bock, lady liberty apa, wals pilsner, chimay blue, Becks in the fridge, xtract lager in the fridge and have a coopers bavarian lager, heineken clone, morgans Yukon smoked ale, plain old coopers lager ingredients ready to go and a JS amber that seems to keep getting put on the back burner, im not sure if this will keep me going for the next month but i should be fairly safe

The other 2 feet or so is for next month

It is good to have a plan.

I like using up to 250g chocolate grain in my stouts.
Morgan's Dockside & Munton's are my favorite kits.

Cheers,
Shagger.

Goldings seems very popular but i suppose it depends on the individual
