Whole grain p/kg/L - chocolate malt, black patent etc.

Post by Frothy » Tue Jun 26, 2007 12:22 am

Recently made a POP stout. Fantastically dark and incredibly rich. My question is..... my dark malts are all whole & although I have some figures for potential extract from chocolate malt and black patent malt I'm guessing that this would be for the crushed version. I've read that there is no potential extract from the roasted barley. Has anyone any advice for my efficiency calc's here?

cheers
