I wanted to work on a starter that was strictly 'all grain'. It's for an IPA recipe I have and now I'm having second thoughts... I need a little feedback.
I took a quart of water to a cup of grain and boiled it for about 10 minutes. Cooled and filtered into a growler and dumped my yeast. White Labs P013.
Now, I'm wondering if I let my 'mini-mash' boil long enough. I guess my thought was, 'less grain, less boil time' but now I'm second guessing myself with, 'different grain amount should be same boil time to extract'.
Anyway, any advice would be helpful as I don't want to waste $20 in grain....
Thanks!
