(And happy holidays, by the way)
So I was going to do an oatmeal stout this afternoon...I understand for the oatmeal I should do a protein rest around 110F, but because I've never done this before:
-do I all all of the grains and get it to 110, then add water to get to 158F (my target temp)?
-or just the oatmeal (and I thought of putting in the flaked barley as well), then add the 8lb or two row and roasted malts after the 20 min rest with the hot water to get to 158F.
Thanks all.
