Notes

Boiled from 23L down to 17L, then added 2L of previously boiled (since chilled) water after cooling the wort using my copper coil.

This much oatmeal caused everything to get stuck at the end of the mash. Was planning on doing a 2-step mash, but the first step was so sticky I gave up and went straight to the boil.

Taste at bottling: tastes very bitter and spicy, like a strong saison.

Post mortem: I never did any water correction for this or an IPA I made before this (except for trying to boil out the chlorine and adding lactic acid to get my high pH tap water down to somewhere near 5), which were my first 2 home brews. I think the water profile coming out of my tap is way too hard and that causes a nasty harshness. The harshness really adds to the hop bitterness and manages to overpower any more subtle flavours going on. That said, there was clearly a spicy/phenolic flavour in addition to the harsh bitterness. Overall, a pretty bad brew.

Going forward, I've started brewing using reverse osmosis water and adding back in a little of my filtered tap water for a base level of minerals.
