My research on the subject, bought up very little info. Which either tells me it doesn't work, or the results are sub-par. That being said, most things I read we're about people trying to malt Lentils. I'm using it as an adjunct....

So yep, why not! Been meaning to brew this for a while.... Today is the day!

Ended up with1.052 to the cube, so underestimated the extraction from the Lentils by at least 10 points. Average 85% on my system, so looking like 25% from the cereal mashed lentils.....


Cheers!
