I am going to brew an AG Oatmeal Stout that I have brewed once before that came out excellent. The only problem was that the mash was got stuck at the begginging of the sparge for about an hour while I fixed it. It trickled out after that and the sparge took forever. I read in BYO that for cereal mashing you can make a double mash, one for the normal grains and one for the oatmeal. Has anyone ever done this?
I am using 1 lb of oatmeal for a 10 gallon brew. I am thinking of seeping the Oatmeal at 152 degrees like a PM might do but I dunno. I really don't want another annoying stuck sparge.
