I'm having so much fun doing these tables and charts that I've done some more.For a couple of reasons. Most important being that the last Stout data was for two different beers: Single Stout and Export Stout. Which made the bitterness chart look weird. Also because I want to check how closely the grists of the Double Stout and Stout resemble each other.
There's no amber malt, just the same as in Stout after 1816. Most of the big London brewers seem to have eschewed its use. Except for Barclay Perkins, who regularly employed it, especially in their more expensive Stouts.
Biggest difference with Stout is the much more stable brown malt content. Which also leads to the pale malt percentage showing less variation, too. At least until 1870, where some was swapped out for sugar. While the black quantity rose slowly and steadiyl.

First, the data in number form:

Next I'll be doing a chart of bitterness and colour.
