Using malted oats
I have some of these in stock. Would you use them whole or crush them first?

Re: Using malted oats
I am using oat malt in nearly all my beers at the moment, it is giving a great velvet like mouth feel,which inky recent stout is nice addition. I have used it at up to 20% and crushed it first. I have found it needs to go through the mill ona much finer setting than eg. Maris otter. If you have it whole and don't have a malt mill then it is time for a pestle and mortar.

Cheers, you two
I'm planning on experimenting with ideas from the St Germain brewery near Lens. Adding some orange peel and coriander at some point.
