Hey guys
Just after your opinons on the sweet spot for colour of a Porter.
I am having a second crack at my Dark Knight Porter recipe, as it was very well received last time. Lessons from last time include, it was a little dark (60 - 65 EBC I estimate), slightly over-carbonated and i didn't hit my OG which resulted in a lower ABV.
All of this stuff is able to be fixed, but just wondering if maybe i should adjust my grains to hot closer to maybe 50 EBC?
