Default Strike temp when using cooked oats

My oats are normally still hot when I add them to the MLT. This wreaks havoc with my mash temps / strike water temp.
How do you add cooked oats and compensate for high oat temp ?
Do you cook them in advance so they can cool ?

Bump. Anyone ?
Do you cook your oats in advance and add cool cooked oats to your mash ?

You can just add them to the mash assuming they are rolled/flaked since they are gelatinized already. If you really want to cook them (I do it sometimes), just mix the cooked oats with your strike water that way you can heat (or add cool water) to hit your target temp.
