Oats

40% oats. What are you making?

NEIPA - more oats for super soft/creamy moutfeel. Fantastic if you want a really thick, creamy stout also.
Perhaps not for everyone!

Basically, i've been doing it ever since I had one of these beers.

Don't you think 40% is a bit of an overkill?

In my opinion, no! But it's all subjective at the end of the day. It would be boring if we all liked the same thing

The first time I had one of those beers I was blown away by how creamy and soft it was. I've been using higher oats ever since. Obvs there us more to a soft body than oat percentage but it doesn't half make a difference!

Is it reminiscent of nitro?

Yes, it is a bit - particularly in the dark beers

Have you heard of this type of beer? Might be right up your street:

I’m intrigued by it but not sure I’m brave enough to mash 100% malted oats!

Never heard of this, interesting. I had read (I think in the book I mentioned above) about someone proving it could be done as an experiment for one of the brewing journals but I had no idea it qas a legit style. I'd be interested to try it but maybe not brew a whole 19L of it!
