I've been chasing more maltiness with this recipe and it's now getting to be in the ballpark of a couple of favourites - Plevna Dry Stout and Sinebrychoff Porter. This 21 l run had 6,7 kg of malt of which 500 g was 1300 EBC Black Malt and 1 kg was 400 EBC Chocolate Light from Viking Malt. The chocolate in particular is a great find with strong and unique taste.

Active malts in the mix are 1085 g leftovers of Simpsons Maris Otter Pale and Viking Sahti malt for the rest. 75 g Challenger and 15 g Citra hops for the duration of the boil. The recipe calls for 90 g of bitterness and of course I forgot to buy hops, so I had to fill in with the Citra.

Yeast was the Sahti standard fresh yeast, so I can call this a sahti-stout. Friendly, smooth mouthfeel as it always delivers. Next go at the recipe will need a new moniker though, as I want to try Alzymologist's malty lager critters :)
