Hi, i just picked up my ingredients for an oatmeal stout and was wondering if anyone has ever toasted their flaked oats? I saw it in "Radical Brewing" and it said that it imparted an oatmeal cookie flavor (which could be enhanced by adding some cinnamon and vanilla extract). It also mentioned toasting two weeks prior to brewing to let some of the bitter aftertastes leave the oats before mashing - anyone?
