Base:
3.3 lbs Amber Malt, Liquid Extract (equivalent to 2.67 lbs dry)
............OR.............

16 oz Crystal Malt (120L)

........................
I don't want to make a stout for my first beer, but as I don't have the PPG of ANY of my ingredients I won't know how strong or dark the beer will be untill after I take the OG.
I am looking to make something in the range of 150 OG
Any suggestions on which to use?
Oh, yeah I have oatmeal as well, so if I end up making a stout I could add that...
