- Tasting Notes
- Fairly simple Irish Stout, but with Flaked Oats instead of Flaked Barley.
Calculated to 75% efficency. Turns out a fine stout at 70% with no adjustments.
Brewing a second batch of this on Saturday. First round was delicious! I thought this up reading some of the grists on (Shut Up About) Barclay Perkins. Also, forget the BJCP guidelines on dry stouts, no stout deserves to be below 1050 OG.
I find Pearl as a good, cheaper substitute for Maris Otter, especially since half of MO isn't real Maris Otter, but substitute if you wish. Please at least use an English pale malt, and for Gods sake, no crystal malt. Thomas Fawcett Amber is a decent substitute for biscuit. Make sure your roasted barley is 400+ SRM, it's different from most American stuff at 275-325 SRM. And use cheap generic brand oats.
6 LBs Thomas Fawcett Pearl Malt, UK, 3 SRM, 60%
2 LBs Flaked Oats, US, 1 SRM, 20%
1 LB Biscuit Malt, UK, 28 SRM, 10%
1 LB Roasted Barley, UK, 450 SRM, 10%
1.5 oz US Goldings, 5% AA, 60 Minutes.
Any English variety will do, 7.5 AA. Challenger, EKG, Fuggles, Styrian all work.
I used S-04 on the first batch, but I will try Wyeast 1318 on the next batch.
Simple enough. 60-20-10-10. Very nice stout. Pictures in a few weeks.
Thanks and enjoy,
