G'day...
I posted a question about cold steeping on the 'Kit and extract' subforum, but I don't know if it was the right place (no response). Basically, I was wondering about the advantages of cold over warm steeping of grains. A few people have mentioned cold steeping grains overnight. I was going to try this with 50g r/barley, 100g choc, 250g crystal and 300g oats for a stout. Obviously I would then boil the strained liquid with LME and hops etc.
I tend to brew at night, so how long is a decent cold steep as I would do this during the day.
Thanks...
