I'm looking for a basic, non tricked out, stout recipe.
I'm going between some of the main books, and the ingredients differ a bit.
Jamil uses 2lbs flaked barley and 1lb roasted barley.
Dave Miller, 1lb flaked barley, 3/4ld roasted barley.
John Palmer, 1/2lb crystal, 1/2lb roasted barley.
So my questions are:
1. how will 1/2lb, 3/4lb, or 1lb roasted change the final beer
2. Is there any one recipe/ratio that people here like more?
3. Can I use rolled oats(cooked, and added to the steeping grains) instead of the flaked barley, which I can't get here, or would it be fine without?
thanks for the help,
