MASH IN: For every 1 pound (0.5 Kg) of grain heat (1.20 L) of water to 170 degrees (76?C). Pour the 170 degree (76?C) water along with the grains stirring as you go. You want to uniformly add the grain along with the water so it doesn't get too hot or form clumps. The temperature should be anywhere from 148-158 degrees (64-70?C). If it is somewhere in the middle you're golden. The beta amylase enzymes are active toward the 145 degree (63?C) end, which make fermentable sugars, making a dry beer. The alpha amylase enzymes are active toward the 160 degree (71?C) end, making unfermentable sugars, making a sweet beer. The balance -mash temperature - is up to the brewer and the type of beer you're making. - 12 Litres Heated *DRY BEER 170F or 76C (Strike) add grain bill - Temp drops to 145F or 63C Hold for 60 min.
