My Oatmeal Stout fell short of expectations. There isn't enough mouth feel or body.
The bill is as follows:
7 lbs Pale Malt (US 2 Row)
2 Lbs Flaked Oats
1 lb Crystal-60L
3/4 lb Chocolate Malt
3/4 lb Roasted Barley
1.5 oz E K Goldings (60 min)
.5 oz E K Goldings (45 min)
1 tsp Gypsum
1 tsp Irish Moss
1 Pkg English Ale Yeast (White Labs #WLP002)
1 1/4 cup DME for conditioning
Single infusion mash with a regular flash sparge.
152F mash temp and a 168F Temp sparge out.
Had an issue with regulating how much mash water went in to control temp and ended up running out of water before I sparged. Added water to the bill and ended up with 9 gallons of wort. Boiled it down to 5 gallons within a 90min boil time.
4 Days in primary, 7 in secondary, and 3 weeks in bottle.
WHERE DID I GO WRONG?!!!!!
