Looking at a step infusion mash, for protein rest or Hochkurz. What's roughly the thickest viable water/grain ratio for the first infusion step?
I assume it just has to be enough to wet all the grain and a bit more to let enzymes move, later steps will add enough extra water for lautering. Maybe 1.5L/kg, assuming 1.1L/kg absorption? I'll try it out but easier to plan water volumes beforehand - 20L mash tun.
