Idea shamelessly stolen from adm.

What does everybody think?

[mysterio]

Should be interesting! 12% oats... sounds like a breakfast beer to me.

[196osh]

Any idea if I need to use different oats than normal porriage oats?

[196osh]

And aye, should be a mouthful.

[adm]

I was just reading through the recipe....and I thought "mmmmm....that looks nice....in fact, it sounds a bit like......"

Anyway - the oats were great in the one i did. They really added to the mouthfeel. That should be cracking, but personally I'd up the IBU a bit.

As for the oats, I'm not sure about porridge oats. I think you can just use them "as is", but I used Flaked Oats from Barley Bottom on mine - which are probably just the same thing.....

[mysterio]

I just use normal porridge oats...

I agree with ADM, you can keep the principle of massive late hopping but throw in some IBUs at the start of the boil just to make it a bit more IPA - like.

I'm not sure if the IBU formulas are robust with late hopping, I've found the bitterness to be below what is calculated.

[196osh]

Dont want something less bitter than needs be, .

How does this look? (changed to pinhead oats)

Mmm, that's going to be some beer!! I missed my final volume by a couple of litres on my last brew as the 60g of hops I chucked in at flame out stole them!!

[DarloDave]

Sounds good, getting this brewed tomorrow?

[196osh]

I had 200g of hops in my last beer, stole a whole load of beer.

Dry hopping with 100g of hops. So i am expecting more theft.

[196osh]

Sounds good, getting this brewed tomorrow?

I wish. This will be brewed about two weeks from now. A week from now I a brewing a belgian pale, then a week after that this guy.

Hopefully I will be brewing it soon enough WLP001 is the yeast, if my stir plate is going.
