Black Friday Oatmeal Stout

If you didn't know, I love stout beers. A good stout can be enjoyed all year long, but I like it even more in the winter. And to honor the people who have the Friday off after Thanksgiving, who decide not to sleep in like normal people, but instead, get up even earlier than they normally do during the week, I give thee my Black Friday Oatmeal Stout.Mash the following grains for 1.5 hours at 151?F:

• 20 pounds 2 row Marris Otter Pale Malt.

• 1 pound 60° Crystal Malt
• 1 pound chocolate malt
• 1 pound Flaked oats
  • Oven toasted at 450?F for 1 hour, turning every 15 minutes.

After mash is done, bring to boil. Boil time is 60 minutes.
Add bittering hops for 60 minutes of the boil:
