Dunkin Coffee Stout

In honor of the drink that America runs on, I made a delicious coffee stout using 2 cups of fresh Dunkin Donuts Original Blend coffee beans, ground with a burr grinder. I used a nylon sack as an extra large tea bag, and just dipped for a period of 5 minutes, immediately after shutting down the boil. The coffee taste in the final product is less than subtle, but delicious and sweet. You know the roast flavor is coming from the coffee and not the roasted barley.

Recipe:
13.0 lbs 2-row
2.5 lbs crystal 60L
0.5 lbs roasted barley
0.25 lbs black patent
0.25 lbs chocolate malt
1.5 oz Northern Brewer (60 min)
0.5 oz Willamette (10 min)
2.0 cups whole Dunkin coffee beans
1 pack Wyeast 1084 Irish Ale
