Prob a sillu qeustion. Can I reuse old grains that had been out in freezing weather?

I have made a 10 gallon batch of chocalate oatmeal stout.

I had a ton of grains that weighed too much and had a hard time immersing it in the kettle.

It worked out though. I unfrooze the used grains on the last batch. Does anything think I can reuse the grains in another smaller 5 gallon batch?

Sound like your grain is not the thing that got frooze.

:cross:

If you're asking if you can use grains twice to make beer, then typically no- there's nothing left to extract. If you beleive there's still something left in them due to poor extraction from the last batch then give it a shot. The fact that they got froozded is irrelevant.
