Just a quick question about starch conversion guys
If I do a partial mash and use 500g amber malt will the starch convert using only this amber malt or do I have to use other malts as well?
The reason I ask is I mashed some grain a few months ago doing a partial mash and could not get conversion.
The iodine test on a white plate still went inky black even after 1.5 hours of mashing.
I read somewhere that you need other grain in the mix to mash successfully
Any advise will be well recieved
Thanks in advance
