Rice Flaked (blue Lake)

[mybeer]

hi, i have some 500g of rice flaked (blue Lake) and am thinking about yousing it in a my wort of 23L with 1 or 2 kg extract dried malt light, and steeping 500g of caramalt malt (Barrett Burston). cluster hops. what would some one recomend how i go about adding my rice flake??

Steeping with caramalt will not be sufficient.
Flaked rice needs to be mashed with some base grains to allow conversion via enzymes.
Maybe a mini mash with some ale malt at 65/67c is in order.

Beau, you've asked this same question in the Kamikaze Lager thread. Just asking once is enough.
