Oatmeal stout help

[Samudell]

Just brewed an oatmeal stout not tasting much butter. Is there any way to add to the keg to fix it

Why would there be butter in oatmeal stout? I have a had a number of oatmeal stouts and even with high percentages I don't get much oatmeal flavour.

Bitter sorry

lol! Ok, that's completely different

Can you fix it? You could boil some high AA hop in 2-3 cups of water then add the tincture/extract/whatevs to your stout. Obviously it'd thin down the beer a bit so the less water used the better in that respect.

I've done this just once in 15 years to take an insipid wheat beer up to something enjoyable, which didn't require much tincture. A stout could take a much stronger dose to move the needle appreciably...

Cheers!

Bitter? Or is it missing roast character? I would not expect an Oatmeal Stout to have noticeable hop bitterness.

what and how much hops did you use?

It was a 3 gal batch and used 1/2 oz od cascades for full boil. I was short on the roasted barley. Trying to see if I can fix it in the keg

Id say just drink it, adjust on the next batch.

I agree with Soulshine2... I don't think that you will be able to make this batch much better. I'd say to put your effort towards improving the recipe next time around.
