Default How long do you partial mash?

Just because I have heard so many different opinions, I want to hear more! How long do you all mash when partial mashing??? 30, 45, 60, 90?

I mash for 60. But the # of grain that I do mash is minimal and it doesnt really effect my og to much. it does a little but not much. I have found with 60 I get the full amount of taste and aroma from the grain that I was looking for.

Every PM recipe I've done calls for 60 minutes.

60 minutes is the starting point whether you're brewing PM or AG. The time and temp depends on how fermentable you want your wort. When I was PM'ing, I would mash for more fermentable wort to balance out the unfermentability of extract. So I'd recommend mashing for 60 minutes @ 150-152F...
