"Coffee Oatmeal Imperial Stout" - from malt extract

To your attention, the winner of the Brewers Cup 2021, created by brewer Artiom Bykov. The judges from more than 200 types of beer awarded this beer 3rd place. This is a great representative of this style. In the original recipe, a package of 1.7 kg of light liquid malt extract "Savas alus" was additionally added to the malting materials, but in this case the total beer strength increases to ~11% ABV, which is already beyond the legal limits for beer, although these limits do not apply to barley wine, so you decide what you will brew. We do not add coffee in the recipe, because we do not sell it, choose your favorite. The author of the recipe recommends Costa Rican or Colombian, medium roast, preparation method - "French press" - 60 g coffee/350 ml water. The best time to add coffee is before bottling the beer, but it will also work at any earlier stage after boiling the wort. It is recommended to aerate the wort before adding yeast
