Imperial/ or Australia stout advice

Was looking at your recipe and feedback I'll have to try it out I reckon ! Is it nice and roasty?? I love a good roasty burnt stout

Yeah it has quite a nice roast taste to it, if you want to up the roast maybe throw some roasted barley but to be honest I couldn't give a good value as haven't had enough experience with roasted barley. I could imagine 200g of roasted barley and choc malt could go well although it might have quite a strong flavour so could need aging for a while

Awesome thanks for that. I could always try what the old boy used to do. My old man reckons back in the day sitting around the fireplace sipping on a stout they used to dip the fire poker in their glass while red hot to get the extra burnt taste! Not sure if he's taking the piss but sounds good!!!

If you give that try, let us know how it goes!!

your old man is right, often done in the days of stout and open fires.
cheers
