Cool wort and pitch yeast. Add unground coffee beans and remaining ounce of Fuggles. The next day skim off all crud, including coffee beans and hops.

One day later, rack to secondary. Ferment three weeks and bottle. Wyeast

#1028 does not seem to have high attenuation, causing high final gravity.

After 1 month in bottles, the beer has low carbonation levels. I like it this way! The beer feels thick and sweet. If you want a good sweet stout, like Mackeson, this recipe with Wyeast #1028 is a good way to go. This stuff is black! When you pour a bottle, it sucks all the light out of the room...you have to drink it in the dark. Amazingly, there isnt much hops aroma and taste, but with so many other flavors and aromas, you dont miss it.
