I need 3 lbs for this 10 gal batch and only have .67lbs can I substitute the quaker oats from the market? Whats your take.
Errr the Quaker Quick Oats are sodium free.
Product: Oatmeal - Quick Quaker Oats | QuakerOats.com
I check the labels and then get the cheapest quick oats at the supermarket. I don't bother with flaked oats at the LHBS, way too expensive for basically the same ingredient.
I stand corrected! Likewise, I don't bother with flaked oats from the LHBS. Bulk bin FTW!

Wouldn't you have to cereal mash rolled oats? I thought only the quick oats were able to go straight into the MLT.

Whole oats and "Old Fashioned Rolled Oats" have not had the degree of gelatinization that Instant have had and must be cooked before adding to the mash.
...get some flaked barley from the LHBS and try making some oatmeal from it....
The one time I made an oatmeal stout (I know, not much experience there) I used 2lbs of 100% Natural Old Fashion Oats and got absolutely zero oatmeal characteristics out of it. Im cereal mashing next time.
