I am looking to make this in the next couple of days (maybe tonight)
My main question is on the grains. I used BeerSmith and have not updated anything to do with the usage of them.
Does it look correct? Basically the water is at 72.8c, add the bag of grain (cracked of course!). This then brings the temp down to the required temp of 65.6c.
To hold this at this temp for 75min seems long but I have no experience to compare with. ...apart from doing some roasted barley and that was for 30min.
Witsup?
