well heres a doozy ive come across that has me thinking somewhat about highly modified grains.its from zymurgy volume 28 #5 sept/oct issue.yeah i know its old but i always look over bits and pieces and miss things now and again.
anyway it is an american award winners view point so taken as is but im curious of others opinions.
"i was having problems hitting efficiencies and getting complexities into my malt profile,and she taught me the importance of step mashing.Theres a myth out there that because the grains today are so highly modified that all you need is a single infusion mash.That will work,but your malt complexity is compromised.With more sophisticated mashing schedules,you can manipulate the malt profile of the beer to get it more finely tuned."
thoughts anyone on this.
cheers
