A method for blending a generator braking torque of a generator of a recuperative brake system having two brake circuits, including: controlling one of the at least two brake circuits of the brake system in a blending mode, a hydraulic connection between a master brake cylinder of the brake system and a storage volume of the brake circuit controlled in the blending mode being at least temporarily enabled, so that brake fluid is transferred from the master brake cylinder into the storage volume of the brake circuit controlled in the blending mode; and controlling another of the at least two brake circuits in a non-blending mode, a hydraulic connection between the master brake cylinder and a storage volume of the brake circuit controlled in the non-blending mode being interrupted during the non-blending mode. Also described is a control device for a recuperative brake system having two brake circuits.
