oatmeal stout
8lbs maris otter
2lbs munich
6 oz roasted barley
8 oz chocolate malt
8 oz crystal 60
4 oz speacial b
1 lb flaked oats, toasted at 300 for 1hr
OG 1.060
During the mash and when I tasted a sample, It smelled and tasted really roasty, like coffee...Nice! I decided to mix it up a little and ferment with Wyeast Munich lager. I let it ferment for 2 weeks at 52 degrees. Took a gravity reading 1.020, tasted sample. It had a really smokey/burnt flavor and aroma. Like a burnt match. I let it sit for another week. Tansferred to 2ndary, took SG reading 1.015, still tastes smokey/burnt. I plan on letting it sit for a month at 35 degrees. I am not sure if this is from the yeast or what, I assume it will dissipate with time. Has anyone else run across this?
