Ingredients:





     7 lb Australian light syrup


     1 lb Chocolate malt, cracked


 1 1/2 lb Black patent malt


    12 oz Crystal malt, cracked


    12 oz Lactose


     2 oz Kent Goldings leaf hops


     1 ts Salt


     1 ts Citric acid


 2 1/2 ts Yeast nutrient


          Ale yeast






 Bring  extract  syrup and enough water to make 3 gallons  to  boil.  Add


 crystal malt. Boil 10 minutes. Add hops. Boil 5 minutes. Turn off  heat.


 Add  chocolate  and black patent malt in grain bag.  Steep  10  minutes.


 Sparge grain bag with 2 gallons boiling water. Add lactose. Pitch  yeast


 and ferment. When bottling, prime with malt extract. It took me three


 tries, but I finally got a batch that was closer to the original Mackeson


 sweet  stout than I could have  hoped  for.  It  was wonderful! After aging


 about three months, it was as wonderfully smooth, dark, and sweet as the


 real Mackeson. Maybe better. Original Gravity: 1.057 Final Gravity: 1.022


 Secondary Ferment: 5-6 weeks
