Thanks to @larsga Ive made a keptinis that really works for me. With the right amount of bitterness and simple grist I've made a lovely English bitter with it. Yeast choice is crucial so the flavours marry well. This latest concoction is a winner and uses 25% oats.

Nice! Maybe publish the recipe somewhere? There aren’t too many of them out there.

For now will tweet it here for 5L. I always pilot brew 5L. 700g Pilsner Malt, 300g oats ( can used 250g breadcrumb or flaked wheat ). 1. Dough in at 52 degrees. Leave for 15 mins. Pour into tray and bake in fan oven at 120 degrees for 30 mins, then up to 180 mins for 30 mins.

2. Break crust, review, can bake another 30 mins if wished. I find 60 mins is enough. Break up and pour directly into 50 degree water. Warm total to 66-9 degrees, add 50g fresh lager malt and mash to convert any leftover starch. Sparge as for an infusion mash.

3. Bitter with challenger or target to get 35 IBU with a 60 min boil and CaCl2 and CaS04 to taste. Add 5g Golding at 15m, then 5g golding and 5g challenger/target at whirlpool ( 70 degrees, 30 mins ). Dry hop with 5g challenger/target. Yeast is the secret here; WLP002 at 20-24C

Or use the hop blend as used for Fullers London Pride, you want total IBU minimum 45-50 because it's a keptinis. Mineral additions help a lot too.

You really want esters that suit that caramel toffee taste and then go for 30-50% more IBU than you'd otherwise expect. WLP028 (Scottish), WLP002, WLP007 and MAYBE WLP005 I think work well on this front.
