Hi
I want to try brewing an Oatmeal stout this coming weekend and was looking at doing Jamils recipe but as a partial mash.
I have some questions about this.
First, my thinking on converting to partial mash would be to keep all the specialty grains as is and swap out the Pale Malt (2-row) for the equivalant amount (75%) of Pale LME. Is this correct? Would it work?
Second, I'm doing this on my stove top and my space/boil size is limited... How big of an effect will it have on the final product if I do a smaller boil and then top up the fermenter?
Finally, this recipe is for a pre-boil size of over 7.5g boil which reduces to 6g. I want to end up with 5 gallons (after topping up in my fermentor) so do I need to scale all of the grains or just the amount of Pale extact that I would use? How do I go about doing that bearing in mind I don't have any brew software?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
