Milestone Black Pearl...Any tips?

[neilos]

Just ordered myself the above kit, really excited about my first stout kit. Should I just follow the kit instructions as it's my first stout? Or does anybody have any recommended tweaks to it? I have got some 'creamy top' as well to add before bottling. Is this a good idea? Seems like it to me!

I'm currently drinking this and I made as per instructions and it tastes great! Never tried the 'creamy top' but I do add NO2 to help with the creamy head.

I'm sure you will really enjoy this!

Im verry happy with as per standard instructions.

In agreement with the other guys.... Make per instructions, leave 4-6 weeks. Drink. Make notes of likes/dislikes. Change for next time if necessary.
