Now for the magic mix!
We start by half filling the vats with water, the salt and yeast are then added to it and mixed in thoroughly, stirring continously at all times,
we then add the oatmeal to the mix and yet more stirring!
In goes the flour and, yes you've guessed it, more stirring until we are happy with the consistency.
