Hi everyone. Was wondering if the brew guru's could critique my recipe. This will be my 6th all grain brew so I thought I would have a go at making a stout. I have done a forum search and looked at some of the database recipes to get some ideas. The ingredients I have used are what my LHBS stock. Let me know what you all think.

5.00 kg JWM ale Malt (3.9 EBC) Grain 1 76.3 %
0.75 kg Oats, Flaked (2.0 EBC) Grain 2 11.5 %
0.30 kg Amber Malt (40.0 EBC) Grain 3 4.6 %
0.30 kg JWM Chocolate Malt (800.0 EBC) Grain 4 4.6 %
0.20 kg JWM Roasted Barley (1150.0 EBC) Grain 5 3.1 %


40.00 g Goldings, East Kent [5.00 %] - Boil 60.0 min Hop 6 23.3 IBUs
10.00 g East Kent Goldings (EKG) [5.00 %] - Boil 20.0 min Hop 7 3.5 IBUs
10.00 g Fuggles [4.50 %] - Boil 20.0 min Hop 8 3.2 IBUs

60 min mash @ 66, 15 min mash out @ 75.

60 min boil

IBU - 30
Colour - 66 EBC

Also what yeast do you recommend? I was thinking nottingham ale yeast or safale us-04? I know my LHBS definitely stock these.
 
Either of those yeasts will work, I've had more success with the Nottingham. I, like others, have had occasional issues with getting S-04 to ferment all the way out to suitable FG.

Still a good yeast, just had some misfires where they've finished around 1.020.
