Oatmeal Stout Recipe

I’ve been working on a new recipe for an oatmeal stout.  I’m starting fresh on this one, basing it completely on the info in Designing Great Beers.

Here’s where I’m at with the recipe:

  • 9.25# Marris Otter
  • 1# Roasted Barley (300 SRM)
  • .6# Black Patent Malt
  • 8 oz Flaked Barley
  • 8 oz Flaked Oats, toasted
  • 4 oz 60L Caramel
  • 1 oz Northdown bittering hops
  • 1 oz East Kent Goldings flavor hops

I even have a name: Ghostly Juror Oatmeal Stout, in honor of the nice dead gentleman who showed me how to find the cafeteria at the Newark courthouse.
