Hi Everyone,
Here is what I had as an initial recipe.
Malt: %
Best Ale 79.5
Oats 11.4
Carafa III 4.5
Crystal 150 2.3
Chocolate 2.3
I was at the beer festival over the weekend and had a few milk stouts and think I had a maltodextrin one (many beers were had) and didn't get the lactose creaminess.
For this reason I'd probably go for lactose in the recipe.
I've ordered 40kg of raspberry puree and also 19litres of Cholaca - a cocoa nib liquid product from Brewers Select. There was an xbeerment from brülosophy on this vs cocoa nibs - seemed to get decent reviews

Probably aiming for an ABV of 6%.
