Flaked Oats

[nate456789]

This is probably a dumb question but ....
I have a recipe that I want to brew this weekend that calls for Flaked Oats.
This is the first time since I have been putting my own ingredients together that I am adding the Oats. In the past it has been done for me when buying kits.
My question, do I add it after I crush the grain or do I want to crush it with the grain?

Thanks

There's no need to crush flaked oats, so crush the grains, then mix in the oats.

Yeah, what ajf said. Not necessary, but if you do grind it wouldn't hurt. Just that flaked grains tend to gum up the knurl in your mill.
