Evening All.
So far I am happy with the two AG Brews that I put down, apart from polishing up my methods. One of them is the time I should take to Mash In. BeerSmith appears to say that it should take 2 minutes. The way I do it is obviously wrong for it takes two to three times as long. For the Dough In I pour 2L of my strike water to my preheated Mash Tun and stir in some grains. I stir to make sure it is fully wetted. I continue doing this in batches until all my grains and strike water are thoroughly mixed. In order to reduce my time thereby preserving the temperature to the desired level, should I just dump all the grains to some water, stir and top up? I think the answer is yes but I am wondering if this is so.
Keep on Brewin'
