Hello,
First post here and I am starting it off with a strange decoction question!
I was listening to the latest visit of Dan Gordon to the Brewing Network and he was speaking about his mash technique. Apparently his brewery does all of the temperature rests before they do any decoctions. so the decoctions happen in the high 160's (f) right before mashout.
So I was wondering, what would happen if you just boiled the entire mash instead of taking only parts out? It would seem that all of the "mashing" has been completed by mashout anyway.
Would this have any obvious negative impacts? The wort would be boiled in the kettle within a few minutes either way.
Thanks for your input!
