I am about to brew up a Belgian Quadrupel and was debating trying a mini-mash recipe for the first time. These are the fermenatable sugar details for the Extract/Steeped Grains and Extract/MiniMash recipes:
--------------
Extract - Liquid: 10.5 lb Liquid Malt Extract, 1 lb Dry Malt Extract, 1 lb Candi Sugar, .5 lb Base Grains, 1.25 lb Specialty Grains.
Mini Mash - Liquid: 10 lb Liquid Malt Extract, 1 lb Candi Sugar, 2.5 lb Base Grains, 1.25 lb Specialty Grains.
--------------
Since the Extract only option does contain 2lbs of grains to steep in the recipe, will I really notice much difference by going with the Mini Mash option over the Extract option in this instance?
Just curious what some of your opinions are on this who have tried Mini/Partial Mash recipes. Thanks.
