Re: RIS recipe wanted
Rui, I've done a few to this basic plan, with various hops (none of which play a major role). I made it to around 8% ABV. It's big on the roast and not for the feint hearted. With age, it gets really lovely and smooth.
Pale 74%
Chocolate Malt 8%
Wheat Malt 8%
Roasted Barley 6%
Special B 4%
Hops: whatever you like, with IBUs a little less than the target gravity in points. I've used Northern Brewer for bittering. A few EKGs later never hurt. I wouldn't go for anything citrussy myself.
Yeast: US-05 (at least 2 packets)
Mash around 68C, maybe slightly lower if you're going for a massive OG. I had a bottle from someone else that was 10%, made to a very similar recipe, and I know he mashed lower for that; the FG will still be high. At 68, with US-05, I get FG around 1.018 from 1.070.

Re: RIS recipe wanted
Why don't you ferment that with 1 packet of US-05? I just did an 8.1% double IPA and 1 packet chewed through it no problem at all.

I'm thinking about racking one gallon into a separate carboy on top of a pound of tart cherry candi syrup.
I'm just here for the beer.

Re: RIS recipe wanted
it's not really best practise. you may get away with it sure, but you also may get a load of peachy esters (maybe lost in a hoppy ipa) and/or a sluggish fermentation. i've noticed a massive improvement in the quality of fermentation using 1g/L us-05 for any ale, let alone one in imperial stout territory.alexlark wrote:Why don't you ferment that with 1 packet of US-05?

can't help with a recipe but there's plenty on this site already, but in my limited RIS experience a strong fermentation and then time to age are probably more important than a precise recipe
