Your Label Peelers Oaty McOatface Stout Original Beer Kit never sits on a shelf. Your grains are crushed to order. Your ingredients are packed fresh and you don't pay for a flashy box. It's all about providing you with the freshest ingredients for you to make your best beer.

Like a master painter skillfully blending colors on a canvas, Oaty McOatface Stout weaves together a rich tapestry of flavors and aromas that tantalize the senses. This robust stout is a swirling symphony of smooth and creamy mouthfeel, reminiscent of a velvet night sky enveloping the palate.

The deep, dark color of this liquid masterpiece is forged from the alchemy of dark dry malt extract, roasted barley, and chocolate malt, creating a visual feast akin to a moonless night. Complexity and an oaty sweetness pirouette gracefully through the brew, as flaked oats and caramel/crystal malt join the dance, adding a touch of golden warmth to the inky abyss.

A trio of hops – Northern Brewer, Fuggles, and East Kent Goldings – harmonize like a string quartet, bringing a perfect balance of bitterness and flavor that sings on the tongue. The grand finale of this opus is the yeast energizer and Irish moss duet, accompanied by the dry ale yeast, which crescendos into a satisfying and memorable finish.

Oaty McOatface Stout is a veritable feast for the senses, with its deep, dark color and an aroma that conjures images of a cozy fireside, where roasted barley and chocolate notes dance like flickering flames. The flavor is a full-bodied embrace of roasted malt and sweet oats, with a subtle bitterness from the hops that whispers like a secret shared between friends. The mouthfeel is as creamy and smooth as a silk scarf, with a light sweetness that lingers on the finish, like the last notes of a beautiful symphony echoing in the night.

star sanSanitizer and Spray Bottle

Good sanitation practices are absolutely fundamental to good beer making. Five Star San is the premier sanitizer you will need to make your Oaty McOatface Stout beer kit. A great practice for extra protection is to have a spray bottle filled with sanitizing solution so you can re-sanitize everything that touches or goes near your beer. Sanitation is much more difficult with beer than wine because beer has a higher pH. Wine's high acidity makes bacterial infection less likely but with beer, one small mishap can cost you your batch.

When your Oaty McOatface Stout is done, you will need bottles. This standard 12 ounce bottle is a good choice. You will need 54 for a 5 gallon batch. Bottles do not come with caps.

Carboys   

The 5 gallon carboy pictured here is the standard size for any beer kit. If you have never worked with a carboy, it is important to know they should not be moved full without a carboy handle or a carrier.

The pot pictured is an 8 gallon pot that is perfect for any beer kit or a standard 5 gallon batch. 

wart-chiller.pngWort Chillers and Thermometers

Wort Chillers and Thermometers are long term investments. It is important to chill your Oaty McOatface Stout wort quickly. The quicker you chill it the stronger the cold break will be. You also need a good thermometer that reads fast temperature fluctuations.  

SiphonsSiphons

Auto-siphons are a great luxury item to have in your brew equipment. Once you have one you will never go without it again. Don't forget to use a heavy duty sanitizer to clean it since you don't want to replace it as often as hoses. A good sanitizer for that job is Five Star San. 

FermenterFermenters

The fermenter pictured here is standard for a 5 gallon beer kit.

minijet-tubing-34987-97929.jpgHoses

 Many people reuse their hoses for far too long. Replacing your hoses often or even using as single use items is highly recommended with beer making. Hoses are very hard to clean and beer is very susceptible to bacterial infection. You do not want to risk losing your Oaty McOatface Stout over a few feet of unsanitary hose.

Pouring your wort into a carboy can be tricky. Use a big funnel made just for the job. They even have different mesh screens to remove particles. 

AirlocksAirlocks

It is recommended to replace airlocks often. Because they never physically touch the beer, the sanitation risk is too often overlooked. Bacteria can spread without physical contact in a closed environment and plastic stubbornly harbors bacteria.   

6.5 stopperStoppers and Bungs 

Bungs and stoppers should also be periodically replaced. They can dry out and harbor bacteria. 

 carboy brushCarboy Brush

Keeping your carboy clean before and after use is key to avoid bacterial infection in your beer. A carboy brush is a great tool to get into those nooks and crannies.

Stainless Steel Carboy and Bottle Washer is a convenient way of cleaning your bottles and/or carboys.  This high quality tool will come in handy.  Hooks up straight to your faucet with the bottle washer adapter (#4804) and puts out plenty of pressure to clean those stubborn stains from beer bottles that have been sitting around. 

bottle capperCapper

When you bottle your Oaty McOatface Stout, you will need to cap your bottles. This capper is inexpensive, easy to use and does not require attaching to a counter. It has a magnet to hold the cap in place.
