what cerial could be clasified as flaked wheat
Re: flaked wheat
I guess Weetabix would be your best bet, I like to keep the quantity below 50% though or the results can be a bit dry...
Jokes aside, you can buy flaked wheat (just under £2/kg) from Better Food Co. in St Werburgh, or perhaps use torrified wheat instead. What's it for?

Re: flaked wheat
For a stout I'd just use whichever of torrified or flaked wheat was easiest to obtain.
Also meant to say it looks like jumbo oats.

I like to keep a bottle of stimulant handy in case I see a snake, which I also keep handy.

Re: flaked wheat
I agree with Steve, no significant difference when you are making a stout, where stronger flavours prevail. A whole world of difference when baking, where cane sugar is the better choice.

Re: flaked wheat
Bought some malted wheat flakes from the health food shop opposite South Road car park in Norton last year, that worked nicely in a few beers.
