So I am going to give this whole partial mash thing a shot. I get how to do it. I'm just not sure about the recipe I put together. I want to do an oatmeal stout. I might have went a little overboard with the grains. I'm still new at this, so I'm just winiging it
Mash these:
2# - 2 row
1# - Flaked Oats
10oz - 60 Crystal
8oz - Carapils
8oz - Chocolate malt
6oz - Black Malt
6oz - Roasted Barley
Maybe a few ounces 120
Then 3# Light DME
Either 2oz Willamette or Fuggles @ 60 and maybe a little bit for aroma. Or Northern Brewer instead. Thoughts?
Was thinking Irish Ale Yeast
So what about the grain bill? Too much/not enough 2 row? 6 row instead? Too much oats? Too much grain in general?
On Brewtarget my numbers are pretty much in on target for the style except that my IBUs are low. I feel that because it is my first time doing a partial mash, I'll do something wrong and my efficiency won't be that high. So I don't really trust the numbers.
