Caution: I'm about to stick my foot in my mouth.
I've read just about everything that I can get my hands on about conducting my mash and can't find info for what I'm looking for. (I know, I probably didn't look hard enough and enter EAC dialoge here)
Caution: I'm about to nerd out here - but hey, that's my style.
Everything I've read is very QUALitative about the differance between higher and lower mash temperatures. Can someone please help me out on something a little more QUANTitative.
I only have 4 AG batches under my belt, so I don't have enough first hand experience to be able to tell the differance between mash temps. But, I've got to believe that there are those of you out there that do.
I know that there are about a bizillion differant variables in play here and I certainly wouln't expect any reply to be dead nuts on. I was just hoping that someone might be able to give me some idea, like:
All things equal besides mash temp, a beer will go from 1.050 to 1.010 if mashed at 150, but only down to 1.014 if mashed at 154.
I hope this all makes sense and thanks in advance for any insight.
