So its a little late to be asking this question as I'm brewing the batch right now, but I'm taking my first stab at a stout:
5 lbs light DME
1 lb roasted barley
1 lb chocolate malt
1 lb crystal 80
0.5 lb steel cut oats
1oz chinook 60 min
.5 oz fuggles 20 min
.5 oz fuggles 5 min
my question is do you think I went a little heavy on the roasted barley, chocolate, and crystal malts? I mean I know I went a little heavier than usual for this type of beer, but will it have too strong of a flavor from these grains?
