Will a single step mash work with 100% Vienna Grain Bill

anico4704 · Jan 8, 2013

Hello,
I am going to be making a SMaSH recipe this weekend, and it will be using 100% GWM Vienna malt.

I was going to use 10lbs for a 5 gallon batch and was wondering if a single step mash of 1 hour at 152 degrees would be sufficient to fully convert? I have read most places that it will be.

Yes, that should be fine.

Did it last weekend.

An easy thing to do is to search for for a "typical analysis" for your brand of malt. Sometimes they outright tell you what % of the grist you can use it for. If not, "DP" or diastatic power > 40 is required.

That page is exactly what I tried searching for but couldn't find. Thanks, that's helpful!
