Polenta, preferably the 1min cook variety

Cornflakes work very well, but I wouldn't put in more than 500g as there is a wee bit of added salt, although that could work ok in a dark beer. I once did a kilo o cornflakes lager and it worked ok however. Just stir into mash at dough in, they wilt and vanish quite quickly.

Do you pre-boil the 1 minute polenta (aka instant polenta I guess), or just throw it into the mash straight from the bag/box?

Hi Brando
I'll mash it , I'll put it in after I stir in grain , just gentle stir it in and leave for 60mins
