I never used Porridge Oats before but after this I feel like I never want to use anything else. Starting my Mash around 68.4 and using porridge oats I've managed the best head retention on a light ale I've ever had. Pinched the idea for Citra with Porridge Oats from a variation of a 'Seymours Gold' recipe somewhere on tinternet.

Feel free to use the recipe, just let me know how you get on

Cheers & Enjoy

Thanks for the receipe. I have some citra to use up so I may make 12L of this.

Is there anything special regarding preperation you need to do to the porridge oats before use?

Like the look of this, it's almost a SMaSH
