Subject: Stout recipe

Hi, everyone;
I'm working on a partial mash stout recipe for St. Patty's day. I'm
thinking of a mocha stout with chocolate and coffee. I'm not sure of
a)how much coffee and cocoa to add and b)how or when to add it. Here's
the recipe, and I'd be interested in what you think.

2 lbs 2-row malt
3.3 lbs dark liquid extract
8 oz chocolate malt
8 oz black patent malt
8 oz 120L crystal malt
1 oz Willamette hops (60 min. boil)
1 pkt ale yeast

3 tbs baking cocoa, in boil
1 qt black coffee, in primary

I haven't run the numbers, but I would guess somewhere between 5% and 6%
alcohol. I would appreciate any and all thoughts.

So if anyone is in Denver at the GABF, stop by the Smoky Mountain Brewery
booth for a taste of my pro-am entry: Abijah's Golden Ale, a Scottish 80
Schilling. I will be there most of the time pouring.
