This Brew Requires An Additional Fermentable

For a very light body:

For a very light bodied brew you can use a liquid brewing sugar. As a minimum you require BrewTec 1KG Liquid Brewing Sugar or to increase the target ABV by approximately 0.75-1% use Brew Master 1.4KG. If you take this approach we would encourage you to bottle mature for around 8-weeks before you drink.

For smoother body and depth of flavour:

Using the 1.7KG Black Rock Dark Liquid Malt Extract will significantly improve the depth and richness of flavour as well as improve body and offer a smoother mouthfeel, more characteristic of stouts. We recomend this approach.

 

For a higher ABV Stout. 

For a target ABV ~6.5% use 1.7KG of Black Rock Dark Liquid Malt Extract and 1KG BrewTec Liquid Brewing Sugar.

For a taget ABV 7-7.5% use 1.7KG of Black Rock Dark Liquid Malt Extract and 1.4KG Brew Master Liquid Brewing Sugar.

For a target ABV ~8-9% use 1.7KG of Black Rock Dark Liquid Malt Extract and 2KG (2 tins) of BrewTec Liquid Brewing Sugar.

NOTE: When brewing a higher ABV brew we would encourage you to use the Mangrove Jacks M42 Strong Ale Yeast, which has a tolerance of up to 10% ABV.

 

Suggested Yeast Pairing

The Black Rock miners Stout will work exceptionally well with the Mangrove Jacks M42 Strong Ale Yeast especially when brewing with liquid malt extract and/or when adding additional fermentables to increase the target alcohol content.

 

Looking for a food match? The Black Rock Miners Stout Goes Well With…

1. Lamb shank Pie: The richness of a slow-cooked lamb shank pie, with its hearty gravy, complements the deep flavors of the stout, enhancing both the meat’s and the beer’s taste profiles.

2. Venison Burgers: The gamey flavors of a venison burger, ideally topped with caramelized onions and a slice of smoked cheese, marry well with the stout, creating a harmonious blend of earthy and rich tastes.

3. Grilled Rib Eye Steak: The smoky, charred flavors of a well-grilled ribeye steak will enhance the dark, roasted character of the stout. The meat’s juiciness and the beer’s full-bodied nature are a match made in heaven.

4. Chocolate and Raspberry Brownie: The bitterness of dark chocolate combined with the tartness of raspberries in a brownie complements the stout’s chocolatey undertones and its overall complexity.

5. Chocolate Mud Cake: For a sweet pairing, the dense, rich chocolate mud cake, a Kiwi favorite, echoes the chocolate notes in the stout, making for a decadently harmonious combination.
