not brewing, but kegging stout today

[carmstrong]

I plan on brewing a coffee stout next week.  Before I start looking, does anyone already have a tried and tested recipe they'd like to share?

[Kyle]

My stout, which I am currently drinking as I brew the Winter Wheat beer, is great. Not to sound self-absorbed, but its really good, and tried by many of the people on here. If you take this:

and add a litre of really strong coffee at flameout, its glorious.

Brewed my very first BMC clone last weekend....to appease my gf...and her father.

should come in at a whopping 3.8% and taste like water....just how they like it.  I would post the recipe, but someone already did  

viewtopic.php?f=3&t=910&p=8268&hilit=bmc#p8268

Might have to brew another couple of batches of this for the gf's father after he saw Dave's label....for some reason he didn't think it was funny...

What recipe did you brew ?

[fakr]

Why your BMC douchebag recipe!  lol!

[Dave Savoie]

and you only got 3.8% ?
cause it calculated out to 5.1 based on beertools

[fakr]

I used your recipe and toned down the grain.  I was aiming for 4% and got 3.8%.
