Can't say much about your recipe as I don't read metric...but I did covert the 10 liters to 2.6 gallons. Interesting size. I do 2 gallon batches and w/an RIS I would start w/at least 3 gal and wind up w/2 in the bottling bucket. Usually gives me 17 bottles.

I did one back in late 2015 that I aged in the bottles for a year and it was really good. Even took a first place at local contest.

Just going to throw this out there, I think of it as my adopted house stout recipe: https://growlermag.com/homebrew-recipe-oatmeal-cream-double-stout/

I didn't have any part in developing it, I am just doing my best with it.

You could substitute the black patent for a debittered black malt.

Ah cool thanks.
Yer sorry about the measurements I'm from across the pond. I only have a small brewing setup.

5 gallon max total volume stovetop stockpot. Which is why I do short batch brewing or odd volumes. Which I then bottle.

I will do as they say. Just brew it and see

I'm also planning on doing second runnings for a smaller lower abv beer as well. If I have enough.
