Okay .... so, I have a partial dunkelweizen that iw ant to do. The problem is, is that I am just doing infusion mashes into an esky.
I have been trying to get this right for a bit but it jsut isnt working out very well ... I always end up adding too much water.
I have of 3.2 kilos of grain that I want to use, and I need to get to rest temperatures of this
dough in 37c - 30 minutes
raise to 50c for 20 minutes
the raise to 63c for 60 minutes
Okay, fair enough - but usually, I use around 7 liters of water for a single infusion mash ...
What is the proper water ratio to use in this instance? I am thinkign something along the lines of tihs
dough in 37c - 30 minutes (water at 44c on mash-in to take it to 37) - maybe with 5 liters?
raise to 50c for 20 minutes - 1 liter of boiled water?
the raise to 63c for 60 minutes - another liter of boiled water?
But will those single liters of boiled water are never enough to raise the temp by that much? I have a feeling that my ratios are out, i usually end up with 8 or 9 liters in the infusion which i think is just way too much ...
So, can anyone help me with the correct ratios and procedure at all? OR something beter thna what I have? Thanks!
