hoppy stout or black ipa without carafa 3?
Does it work to make something like an apollo smash or darkstar hophead and simply add roasted barley (or even home roast some pale malt). I have no cara 3 and can't think I'll get any in time.
Thanks in advance

I think roast malt would make it too roasty for my taste in these things. YMMV though
I would try cold extraction with black patent if I was trying to do one without Carafa Special

Chocolate wheat malt is good sub for Carafa 1 Spezial, but I don't know if there is black malt made of wheat to sub Carafa 3. Anyway I'd try with cold extraction of regular black malt or give roasted wheat a try. Wheat is huskless grain, this might be a good sub to dehusked malt.
Re: hoppy stout or black ipa without carafa 3?
Great shout that - I've got some wheat malt I can roast. Got to be worth a try. Thinking of using the hophead recipe with say 5 pc roasted wheat and a fair slug of dry hopping. Any comments on that anyone?

Re: Odp: hoppy stout or black ipa without carafa 3?
There is; it's called midnight wheat. I brewed an IPA may 27th and plan to use some midnight wheat to make a dark extract to add to a gallon of it to make a black IPA.zgoda wrote:Chocolate wheat malt is good sub for Carafa 1 Spezial, but I don't know if there is black malt made of wheat to sub Carafa 3.

Re: hoppy stout or black ipa without carafa 3?
You could make a cold extract from your roasted barley.
Cold steeping tends to extract only the colour rather than the whole package.

Would be easy to change the colour of a brew from light to dark using brewers caramel, without it impacting the flavour.

My IPA has nearly finished in FV and looks at moment not dark enough I was thinking of adding some steeped roast barley which I have not done at this point before would I be right in thinking of boiling a couple litres of water and letting it cool down to room temperature before adding roast barley and then steeping for one hour.

I wouldn't recomend that.dynamic dave wrote:Morten wrote:You could make a cold extract from your roasted barley.

Malt often has a lot of funky stuff, especially lactic and it could sour your beer.
Re: Odp: hoppy stout or black ipa without carafa 3?
Look for black malt extract, there is Sinamar by Weyermann and I'm sure I saw similar product from Brewferm, Clarimalt (not sure about the exact name). Other than that, there's long tradition of using caramel colorant e150 for colour correction in brewing.

What you need to do is cold steep the roast barley and boil the roast barley juice before you add it. I did that with some midnight wheat to add to an IPA, although I steeped over night.

Re: hoppy stout or black ipa without carafa 3?
After taking the beer out of the FV and into a barrel looks like it has darkened more than I thought and tastes good.
