Head retention in a raspberry stout

(1/1)

mpietropaoli:
Had some issues with head retention in my last stout where I added 32oz grade b maple syrup post-fermentation.  Am planning a choc raspberry stout with 4-5lbs of raspberries post-fermentation.  Is it simply a matter of adding some dextrin malt to my mash?  Mash higher to compensate?

erockrph:
For a stout my personal choice would be to add some flaked barley.

mpietropaoli:
How much?  10%?
