Just wondering if anyone built this one as i am getting keen to put one down. This is the recipe from TDA's link:THE DRUNK ARAB said:Gidday, I'm going to brew this clone of Big Sky's Slow Elk Oatmeal Stout this week. http://www.byo.com/recipe/799.html
I will be using whitelabs Irish Ale 004 yeast which was donated by Pedro.
There is a **** tin of crystal in this and just curious as to how the US and UK crystal malts vary. If anyone knows I would be interested to hear.
Cheers and bollocks

Yes and no.SJW said:Also does it matter what bittering hops i use. I went to a local brewery yesterday to get some Northern Brewer hops for my Bock and he only had POR. and said all bittering hops are the same just pay attention to the alpha acid. Does this sound right?
There's a slight problem with this recipe. That being theres no enzymmes' to convert the oatmeal.SJW said:Slow Elk Oatmeal Stout
OG = 1.055 FG = 1.016 IBUs = 20
3kg's Coopers light unhopped malt syrup
680g caramel crystal (160 ebc)
114g black patent malt
170g chocolate malt
170g flaked oats
6.25 AAUS East Kent Golding hops (1.25 oz. of 5% alpha acid)
1 teaspoon Irish moss
2/3 cup corn sugar for bottling
London ESB Ale (Wyeast 1968) or English Ale (White Labs WLP002) or Muntons dry yeast.
Jayse is spot on - you need some base malt enzymes in this recipe in order to mash the oats and extract the fermentables...jayse said:There's a slight problem with this recipe. That being theres no enzymmes' to convert the oatmeal.SJW said:Slow Elk Oatmeal Stout
