Ive brewed about 25 batches All-Grain now and havent really cared for the number crunching portion of it... its been working and tastes great.. Last couple of batches have been 10 gallon batches of stuff i enjoy most....
i usually do a 60 min sach rest and temp depends on style and finish i want
ive read to be sure you have a full conversion you can test some wort with iodine and if it turns purple you still have some more starch to convert...
how is this done? my guess is pull a sample from the ball valve and pop a few drops of iodine into it and if it turns purple keep waiting??
when the full conversion is complete what color should it be??
how much iodine to wort should you add??
again, havent really had any problems with efficiency just want to make sure if theres sugar left im getting all of it converted...... any help would be great
