So this is the first time i've experienced this:
had my wort boil over randomly about a half hour into the boil. had already been at a vigorous boil the whole time. It then tried to boilover again with about 15 minutes left.
I'm making an oatmeal stout and i mashed my specialty grains (biab style minimash) for 45 minutes @ 155F. Grains were
.5 lb flaked oats
8 oz chocolate malt
12 oz roast barley
1 lb caramel 60
I suspect the boilover was just from there being so many nonfermentables in this batch and a large amount of proteins.
Anyone else ever had these random boilovers? Is my theory approximately correct as to why it happened?
