First attempt at this style, any suggestions are welcome.  I'm more concerned about the grain bill than the hopping schedule.

Please note it's only a 3 gallon batch...

I wasn't ignoring you I promise!  lol...

Have you made an imperial stout with a similar grain bill?

 I know you weren't ignoring me.  Just funnin' !    Yes I've brewed a similar RIS (less the flaked barley but that sounds good), and it's very good!!  I used different hops but your hop schedule looks okay to me.

[Lynux]

Right on!

I like all the suggestions but I'm concerned about the roasted barley.  I made 3 gallons of dry stout with half a pound and it wasn't quite roasty enough for me.  Also, I don't have any wheat malt on hand so that's out.

I wanted a hop schedule with some bite so that's why the Chinook are in there at 30 min.

I think I'm going to do something like this:

10.00 lb Pale Malt (2 Row) US (2.0 SRM) Grain
0.50 lb Barley, Flaked (1.7 SRM) Grain
0.50 lb Munich I (Weyermann) (7.1 SRM) Grain
0.50 lb Roasted Barley (Thomas Fawcett) (609.0 SRM) Grain
0.25 lb Caramel/Crystal Malt -120L (120.0 SRM) Grain
0.50 lb Chocolate Malt (Thomas Fawcett) (508.0 SRM) Grain
0.125 lb Special B

Looks really good!!  Please post an update in a few months.

Looks fine to me.  I used oatmeal instead of flaked barley in mine and no dark crystal instead I used 80L and some molasses.  There may be some flavor differences, but your recipe looks fine to me.  Just age it for about 6 months.
