Milk stout hops

[Secla]

Putting together a recipe for a milk stout ! I am going to bitter with magnum, should I leave it at that or add an English hop like fuggles later on in the boil ?

Personally I'm never one for not adding late hops in any style. Fuggle would work well but Bramling Cross is always a cracker for stouts and porters.

I like Bramling Cross myself, however if you don't have access to those then some EKG or Fuggles will do the job .

Seems bramling cross is popular, il hunt some down
Most recipes only call for a very small hop addition at about 10-15 minutes

Hops don't play much of a part in milk stout so I don't think it matters all that much which bittering hop you use. As far as late hopping goes add, or don't add, whichever hop you like.

I did a porter recently and used a small amount of Progress for both bittering and at flame out, worked really well and i'd definitely use it in a stout or porter again.
