Flaked Oats

Flaked Oats consist of husked oat grains that have been cooked at high temperature, resulting in gelatinisation of the starchy endosperm, and then flaked. They will give a smooth, creamy mouthfeel to finished beers.

The presence of oat husk can assist with wort separation, especially if the grist contains naked grains such as Malted Rye, Naked Oat Malt or Wheat Malt.
