hey
sorry if this is already in the archives, searched but no luck so please answer or point me in the right direction with hot linky goodness
when i used to bottle i would do a stout 6-8 months before winter so it was a nice drop by the time the cold kicked in
was thinking of doing the same with one of my spare kegs. is there any problem with kegging a milk stout now and leaving it in the keg till winter? never done a milk stout before and i didnt know if the lactose changed the shelf life at all or how long a beer can stay in a keg.
any tips etc would be great.
oh recipe BTW based on recommendations from other AHBers and recipes i have seen around the place came up with this little ditty
1 can muntons irish stout
750grams LDME
250grams dextrose
500grams lactose
1.5 kg coopers light liquid ME
50grams Goldings hops
safale SO4 yeast
any suggestions on recipe also appreciated.
cheers
