I got the ingredients from Brewer’s Edge instead of Siciliano’s. They did not have bulk Dark LME so I used Golden LME instead and increased the amount of chocolate, black patent, and roasted barley grains. I did not crush up the flaked oats with the grains. I used my large grain bag and I lost a lot of water when removing the grains – probably close to a gallon. However, I had close to a gallon of LME so that brought it back up close to 5 gallons total again. It took over 45 minutes starting from cold water to get to 165F to steep. Lost maybe half a gallon during the boil. So the OG was higher than previous time but more like what I was going for with this recipe anyway.
