Tell me what you think. I got this book from my gf's mom and thought I might try something out of it.

Sounds above my brew level. I've only done one AG batch before.

I'll always recommend my simple stout recipe, in the recipe forum, but I would also say if you do this one, don't worry about a step mash or protein rest. I regularly used up to 2.2 lb of flaked barley/flaked oats in a brew and have never had a stuck sparge with my SS braid manifold.
