Ok, so far i've only brewed using extract but i'm considering steeping grains for my next (or the one after) brew.
I've been reading a few things about it and there seems to be a few adifferent opinions on the matter. Some sources say to put the grains in the water as it heats up to boiling, while others say to steep at constant temp. (155F-ish) for approx. half an hour.
I understand that higher temps. will produce tannin flavours.
What's the opinion around these parts?
Cheers
