Which HOPS to USE in an OATMEAL Stout???

[jahdrummin]

Hey everyone...I made the mistake of ordering all ingredients for an oatmeal stout...EXCEPT the Hops, as I have a small stockpile, but not what the recipe asked for... here is the recipe...

8 oz Flaked oats
8 oz Chocolate
5 oz Roasted barley
4 oz Wheat
8 oz 6 row

6.5 lbs amber LME

Hops:

Bullion
Styrian Goldings


Thing is I do not have the above mentioned hops...I do have the following hops right now...

Perle
Cascade
Magnum
Nugget
Centennial
Summit
Sterling


So help me my brothers and sisters.... with the grain bill I do have...which of the hops that I currently have can work with this type of recipe??? even if it does not turn out to be a "true" oatmeal Stout without the hops recommended...what may work so I can brew this baby today> as always thanks in advance!

Regards

For a cleaner flavor you could get by with a small bittering addition of magnum, then finish with the sterling. Or, you could go buck wild and use the centennials and nuggets. that could be interesting.

+1 here, Magnum at 60, Sterling @ 20

I'm gonna vote Nugget at 60, centennial at 20

I had a porter with a similar hopping, and it was awesome....don't see why the flavors wouldn't work in a Stout.

i would just do a 60minute addition with magnum to the ibu wanted

IMO, only the most assertive hop varieties stand up against the robust roast flavors of a stout; as such, I'd not worry about any flavor or aroma hops and just use enough Magnum to get to your target IBUs.
