First triple decoction mash!

Monstar · Feb 13, 2011

Yesterday (and last night :rockin

I did my first triple decoction mash, inspired from reading Radical Brewing.

I put a big step by step up on my blog...

Has anyone else done a triple decoction? It was definitely the best tasting wort Ive ever made! It went much smoother than I expected, had a great time.

I triple decoct a lot of my beers. It's a ton of work but well worth it.

Sweet! I haven't had the urge to try decoction yet, but you may have just inspired me :mug:

Awesome, it was definitely fun, you wont regret it. Mark off the day for it though, I had a 7 hour brew day total for a 3 gallon batch

One thing thats great about it taking so long is you can kill a 6er in the day without messing up your brew! :mug:

Congrats!!! I did a triple decocted pilsner once. Longest brew day ever, but also one of the best brews ever.
