Milk Stout - 1 Hour Recipe Kit

Inspired by beers such as: Left Hand Milk Stout, 3 Floyds Moloko, Stone Coffee Milk Stout

The Milk Stout is a variation of stout that incorporates lactose, or milk sugar, into the brewing process. It adds a touch of sweetness and a smooth, creamy mouthfeel to the beer. Milk Stouts exhibit a dark, opaque appearance with a tan or brown head. They offer flavors of roasted malt, chocolate, and coffee, with the lactose providing a subtle sweetness that balances the bitterness.

Simply Brewing® 1 Hour Recipe Kits contain all the ingredients for new and experienced brewers to easily brew 2.5 gallons of beer in a simple, 1-hour brewday with the use of a 1 Hour Equipment Kit and any 10+ quart stovetop pot. The brew process involves dissolving malt extract into heated water, steeping bags of milled grain (if applicable), boiling and/or steeping bags of hop pellets, and cooling the wort (unfermented beer) in a sink to be added to your fermentation vessel. The wort is then topped off with chilled water for an even faster cool, and the yeast is added. All this including cleanup takes just 1 hour!
