I am planning to brew a milk stout for Christmas, something in the region of 4.5-5.0%.
There seems to be quite a variety of different ingredients used in this style, so I would appreciate any tried and tested recipe ideas please.
Cheers

I used blackprinz malt instead of roast barley in my last milk stout and was very happy with the results.
I'm just here for the beer.

Re: Calling any Milk Stout recipes.....
Chambord sorry glasses steamed up. 11ml in 330ml bottle gives a fizzy beer probs could knock it down to 9ml
Or 15ml in 500ml tho it's dangerous so small bottles are best

Re: Calling any Milk Stout recipes.....
This is quite sweet, but you could optionally add other flavourings - hazelnut, chocolate etc to it at bottling and it would work as a great base for that.
5% ABV, 1.057 OG, 1.018 FG, 29 IBU
77% Maris otter
7% black malt
5% crystal
3.5% pale chocolate
7.5% lactose
29 IBU of a neutral bittering hop for a 60 minute boil - I use Magnum - and balance water profile towards chloride.
WLP028 to ferment
Prime to 2 volumes of CO2.
