Oatmeal Stout Recap

I think I'm starting to get the hang of this system. There were several times during yesterday's brew that I thought what am I forgetting because it seemed too easy. But that's a good thing.

The grain bill consisted of Pale malt, rolled oats ,roast barley, and caramel 120. There was a single hop addition of Cluster to provide a hop backdrop to beer dominated by roasty, malty, flavors.The color turned out great, a deep opaque black.

The whole process went great except for the fact that we might have sparged too quickly. The OG was 1.055 which I thought might be a little higher, but then again, you don't get a lot of extract out of oats and roast barley. I'll keep an eye on that next time we brew the Oatmeal Stout.

Next weeks brew - IPA
